lyrics

I could have been a lawyer
I bet that would have made my Dad proud
I could be driving some luxury car
Instead of this old van that I got now

I could have been a surgeon
So many ladies tell me I have great hands
I could take long vacations
And lose my Rolex in the sand

I got a good thing going
These choices have been my own
I got a good thing going because I know
Life goes on until it don’t

I should have been an actor
I’ve been acting most my life
I’d make millions a picture
And have to give it all to my ex-wife

I got a good thing going
These choices have been my own
I got a good thing going because I know
Life goes on until it don’t

So what are you waiting for?
You got something better to do?
We’re all just getting older
And uglier

Now, my Dad gave me this guitar
And it requires my tender hands
And I quit lying to my girlfriend
And that van, that’s for the band, man

I got a good thing going
These choices have been my own
I got a good thing going because I know
Life goes on until it don’t

I got a good thing going
These choices have been my own
I got a good thing going because I know
Life goes on until it

about

The Family Township image

The Family Township Boston, Massachusetts

Township, AKA The Family Township, has been making their Boston-bred brand of classic rock inspired music for nearly 2 decades. As the years and albums have progressed, Township's music has evolved, infusing itself with greater urgency, immediacy, and existential rumination; mirroring these days rather than “those days.” ... more
