Bridget was a sweetheart, with Greek letters around
Her neck on a chain
She wasn't really my type, but she was beautiful, and I'm
Kinda vain
Her mind was closed like a liquor store on Sunday
She's trying to make her ex-boyfriend mad
It's kinda of a rebound, that's OK
She's married with a kid on the way
And I'm glad I didn't stand in the way of a good thing
Shelly was a stripper, a damn good mechanic and a
Friend
She used to pick me up in her 64 and take me places I'd never been
She drank vodka on the rocks with a tall glass,
Chased with cocaine and her teenage girlfriends
I couldn't phase her, that's OK now she livin' with a girl named Renee
Last I heard she was teaching in Frisco, she's got a good thing
Alice was a bartender at a place I used to play for a while
Some of the girls didn't like her she'd get $20 tips with a smile
I used to talk to her, try to get in her head
We'd just end up drunk in my bed
I never knew her, that's OK she's in Vegas makin' 5 bills a day
She said I wasn't too much fun when I was sober
Now she's got a good thing
So, here's to the lady whose name it hurts me to say
She's the proverbial one that got away
She said life is all a young girl has, and I can't find mine
While I'm living yours I don't blame, that's OK
She's married with a kid and a kid on the way and
I'm glad I didn't stand in the way, of a good thing
Yeah, she's got a good thing, a good thing
