Good Life
Funkmaster Flex Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seven days of work
Getting no break
Gotta take a day off to unwind
It gives me time to get away
A little time to ease my mind, my mind tonight

Forget about your worries
Save your problems for tomorrow

Tonight just try to have a good time
Let the DJ make it easy
Let the music help you do it
Tell me don't you want to live the good life

The Good Life
Good friends, no stresses
The Good Life
Laid back, relaxed in
The Good Life
Good love, no messes
The Good Life
want to live in the Good Life

Dancing with a glass of champagne
Or maybe Chardonay, keep me feeling good all night
See so many happy people on the floor
Leave your problems at the door, the door

Forget about your worries
Save your problems for tomorrow
Tonight just try to have a good time
Let the DJ make it easy
Let the music help you do it
Tell me don't you want to live the good life

The Good Life
Good friends, no stresses
The Good Life
Laid back, relaxed in
The Good Life
Good love, no messes
The Good Life
want to live in the Good Life

The Good Life
Good friends, no stresses
The Good Life
Laid back, relaxed in
The Good Life
Good love, no messes
The Good Life
want to live in the Good Life

We'll dance the night away
Inside it feels so good I want to stay
although I hate I have to go
And face another day
I'm gonna get my groove on and party, party

Forget about your worries
Save your problems for tomorrow
Tonight just try to have a good time
Let the DJ make it easy
Let the music help you do it
Tell me don't you want to live the good life

[Faith](Flex)
The Good Life
Don't you want to live in
The Good Life
Laid back, relaxed in
The Good Life
Good friends, good lovin'
The Good Life
Oh I want to live the good life
(Yeah, exactly)
The Good Life
(Ha, ha)
Tell me do you want to live
(You know what I mean)
The Good Life
(Shout to Bad Boy and shout to my man Puff Daddy)
Laying back, just relaxin'
(Alright, Faith Evans, Todd, all of that)

The Good Life...

Good friends, good lovin'
Having good friends and a loving companion

Oh I want to live the good life
Desire to live a carefree and pleasurable lifestyle

Tell me do you want to live
Do you seek to have

Giving praise and recognition to Bad Boy and Puff Daddy

Laying back, just relaxin'
Unwinding and chilling in a comfortable environment
