Pam Tillis: "All The Good Ones Are Gone" Lyrics

(dean dillon/bob mcdill)

(track 2 - time 3:16)



Shell turn thirty-four this weekend

Shell go out with her girlfriends

Theyll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on

Therell be guys and therell be come ons

Shell probably get hit on

But she thinks all the good ones are gone



Shes got friends down at the office

And she cant help but notice

That when the day is over

How they all hurry home

Every day theres guys she works with

And even some she flirts with

But it seems like all the good ones are gone



And her mama called this mornin

Said Im worried about my baby

I wish you had a family of your own

She said mom its not that easy

You make it sound so simple

But you cant take the first man that comes along



Once she had someone who loved her

Back when she was younger

Now she wonders if she held out

A little bit too long

Back then there were so many

Now there just arent any

It seems like all the good ones are gone



And her mama called this mornin

Said Im worried about my baby

I wish you had a family of your own

She said mom its not that easy

You make it sound so simple

But you cant take the first man that comes along



Shell turn thirty-four this weekend

Shell go out with her girlfriends

Theyll drink some margaritas, cut up and carry on
