I'm Doing Okay, Pretty Good Lyrics
You can go,
Any time you want
I won't watch,
If it hurts too much
But if you stay,
I promise you I'll be
Better to you,
Better to me
I been out, to celebrate my new freedom
With a drink to you,
Because you made it new
And I hate everyone I see:
Everyone, everything
I know how to celebrate my new freedom
Forget other stuff
If I drink enough
To pretend that I got people too:
People I know, who care what I do
You were just trying to be nice
I never asked your advice
I know how to handle the situation:
How to be discreet,
and admit defeat
You can go
And I'll say what I should
"I'm doing okay, pretty good"
Any time you want
I won't watch,
If it hurts too much
But if you stay,
I promise you I'll be
Better to you,
Better to me
With a drink to you,
Because you made it new
And I hate everyone I see:
Everyone, everything
Forget other stuff
If I drink enough
To pretend that I got people too:
People I know, who care what I do
You were just trying to be nice
I never asked your advice
How to be discreet,
and admit defeat
You can go
And I'll say what I should
"I'm doing okay, pretty good"
