Good Ones and Bad Ones
Navigating Love's Thin Line: George Jones' Musical Tale
Lyrics
Some come from Heaven, some crawl from Hell
Some individuals are inherently good (from Heaven), while others are inherently bad (crawl from Hell).
And the good fight the bad for your soul
Good individuals are in constant conflict with bad ones for the well-being of your soul.
But it's hard to tell a lie from the truth
Distinguishing between lies and truth is challenging.
When you find one that easy to hold
Finding someone easy to hold can make it difficult to discern their true nature.
There's no way of knowing which one you've been lovin'
It's hard to identify if you've been loving a good or bad person until you separate from or lose them.
Till you leave her or you lose her for good
Recognition of the person's true nature often occurs only after leaving or losing them for good.
And by then it's too late, you just mark it off to fate
By the time the truth is evident, it's too late, and the outcome is attributed to fate.
Either way, you end up a fool
Regardless of the path taken, it leads to foolishness.
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
There's a thin boundary between experiences of Heaven and Hell.
When the good makes you feel like you should
Feeling positive and virtuous can blur the line between Heaven and Hell.
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
The boundary between Heaven and Hell is delicate, especially when negative experiences bring pleasure.
When the bad makes you feel just as good
Even negative experiences can provide a sense of satisfaction and pleasure.
A good one will love you for all that she's worth
A good person will love you genuinely, valuing your entire worth.
A bad one will take you for more
A bad person will exploit you for more than you are willing to give.
A good one will cherish the key to your heart
A good person treasures the key to your heart, symbolizing deep emotional connection.
And a bad one, a key to your door
A bad person values access to your physical space (key to your door) rather than emotional intimacy.
A good one will love you for richer or poorer
A good person loves you unconditionally, regardless of financial status.
But that makes the bad even worse
The presence of a bad person worsens the impact of financial challenges.
A good one will love you till death do you apart
A good person's love endures until death.
And a bad one makes sure you go first
A bad person ensures your demise comes before theirs, revealing malicious intent.
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
Reiteration of the delicate boundary between experiences of Heaven and Hell.
When the good makes you feel like you should
Positive experiences may make the line between Heaven and Hell ambiguous.
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
The boundary is fine, and negative experiences can be surprisingly pleasurable.
When the bad makes you feel just as good
Even the negative can evoke feelings of pleasure and satisfaction.
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
Emphasizing the thin line between experiences of Heaven and Hell.
When the good makes you feel like you should
Positive experiences can make the boundary between Heaven and Hell less distinct.
It's a fine line between Heaven and Hell
Reiteration of the delicate boundary between experiences of Heaven and Hell.
