Good Thing

I've been looking for the sunny side of life
I've been fighting through the wrong to find the right
Every door I find is locked, there ain't no window, ain't no gate
Good things come to those who wait

I can't see the sunshine for the rain
And I can't feel the pleasure for the pain
The devil's got a hook, but I ain't biting on that bait
Good things come to those who wait

So I'ma keep believing, keep pulling on that string
When one of these days, I'm gon' find my good thing
And I'ma leave this mean ol' world, better than when I came
When one of these days, I'm gon' find my good thing

Daddy told me there'd be hurtin' times like this
But you don't really listen when you're a kid
Now I'm reaching in for some patience and some faith
Good things come to those who wait

I'ma keep believing, keep pulling on that string
When one of these days, I'm gon' find my good thing
And I'ma leave this mean ol' world, better than when I came
When one of these days, I'm gon' find my good thing

Yeah man, I'm gonna rise up
These hands are gonna climb up
Gonna get unstuck, outta this rut
If you don't run, you gonna rust

So I'ma keep believing, keep pulling on that string
When one of these days, I'm gon' find my good thing
And I'ma leave this mean ol' world, better than when I came
When one of these days, I find my good thing

Good things come to those who wait
Good things come to those who wait
