about

From the album, "Good Night"

lyrics

Sheila was a waitress in the combat zone,
helping the clientele get stoned.
Earned her tips from those handsy jerks.
Never asked the strippers about their work.

I was house detective at the Charlesgate Hotel
keeping the working girls alive and well.
Never asked what I did not want to know.
Kept the peace between the come and the go.

good times come 
sad times go 
sometimes what you got you don't even know 

sad times come 
good times go 
don’t know where they come from
don’t know where they go

Shared a place with Sheila down on Baker Street.
We were happy there a couple weeks.
Then she decided I did not need to know.
I said something stupid: it was time to go.

She’s got a wife now back in Baltimore, Jack.
I live out in Palmer in a three-room shack.
I get to do everything my own way, but
I keep thinkin’ I had something else to say.

good times come 
sad times go 
sometimes what you got you don't even know 

sad times come 
good times go 
don’t know where they come from
don’t know where they go
