Lyle Lovett And His Large Band
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I talk before I think
I'm drunk before I drink
I roll my eyes before I even have the chance to blink
Say something stupid like when's the baby due?
Slip and tell you that my granny has the same dress too

[Pre-Chorus]
My train of thought is like a locomotive
I get lost, a little bit caught up in the moment
So if I make a bad impression
Well try not to get offended 'cause I got

[Chorus]
Good intentions
I celebrate my many imperfections
And I'm still, trying to learn my lesson
Though I might be misunderstood
My intentions are always
Good (Good)
Good (Good)
Good (Good)
Good intentions

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I'm quick to turn my nose
I step on people's toes
And wind up in the craziest scenarios
And I curse a little much
Come off a little tough
And tell ya, honey, your boyfriend sucks

[Pre-Chorus]
My train of thought is like a locomotive
I get lost, a little bit caught up in the moment but I got

[Chorus]
Good intentions
Yeah and I celebrate my many imperfections
And I'm still, trying to learn my lesson
Though I might be misunderstood
My intentions are always
Good (Good)
Good (Good)
Good (Good)
My intentions are always

[Bridge]
Rough around the edges
Ain't always the best perception
And from your point of view
This road I'm paving's where I'm heading but hey
That's alright 'cause
I sleep at night
Knowing all my cards are on the table with nothing to hide
It ain't a crime to drop the ball or
Break down my walls
Do all the right things and watch everything go wrong if I got

[Chorus]
Good intentions
Yeah and I celebrate my many imperfections
And I'm still, trying to learn my lesson
Though I might be misunderstood
My intentions are always good
Though I might be misunderstood
My intentions
Are always good
I got, I got (Good, good, good)
Good intentions
I got, I got (Good, good, good)

[Outro]
Yeah, you'll never have to wonder
You'll never have to guess
'Cause what you see is sure as hell
Exactly what you get
