Sometimes the Good Guys Finish First Songtext
von Pat Benatar

S-U-C-C-E-S-S
That′s the way we spell success
Will we get it? The answer's yes
S-U-C-C-E-S-S

Small town boy, so clean he squeaks
Dressed and polished for the big time dreams
Got a letter from his mama, and a boyish grin
Close his eyes one minute, and it′ll lead him to the win, yeah

You know there's nothin' like heaven that won′t get you back
So you get your ass in gear, and your mind on track
When wheels start turnin′, things start to fall into place
You'll be suprised what you can do and some talents all it takes, yeah

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes your best is all it takes
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, finish first


Back on logic, turn your head around
Use the front door and avoid the crowds
They′ll try to tell you that it can't be done
′Cause the big boys on their own gave us half the fun, hey-hey

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes your best is all it takes
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, woah

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes your best is all it takes
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, finish first

The good guys
The good guys
The good guys
Finish first

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes your best is all it takes
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, woah


Sometimes the good guys finish first
Walk in and stood now in it fast
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, finish first

Sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes your best is all it takes
You know that, sometimes the good guys finish first
Sometimes the good guys, finish first

Hey!
