Good Enough Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can put my best dress on, get my hair all done for you
And you still wouldn't say I'm pretty, no
And I can spend my whole life doing everything you asked me to
And you wouldn't appreciate what I'm giving, no, no, no

[Chorus]
And if I'm not good enough, then baby there's the door
I bet you, you won't find another who gon' give you more
Baby I don't wanna waste my time changing how you feel
If you don't want me, someone else will
If I'm not, if I'm not good enough

[Verse 2]
I can fly around the world and back in 80 days
And it's still not fast enough baby
Give you every dime I got, and say it's all for you to take
And you would still walk around like you hate me
All I gotta say is

[Chorus]
And if I'm not good enough, then baby there's the door
I bet you, you won't find another who gon' give you more
Baby I don't wanna waste my time changing how you feel
If you don't want me, someone else will
If I'm not, if I'm not good enough
[Bridge]
Now I can only do so much
It's a shame that it ain't enough
But I'm tired, so tired
Of trying to give what I ain't got, oh
No I ain't gonna lie, I love ya
But it was never me you wanted
And I'd be a fool to stay with you if you don't want me to

[Chorus]
And if I'm not good enough, then baby there's the door
I bet you, you won't find another who gon' give you more
Baby I don't wanna waste my time changing how you feel
If you don't want me, someone else will
If I'm not, if I'm not good enough

I ain't gon' stand here for another second, baby
While you tell me what I ain't do, when I know I did
When I know I gave you everything I had

[Chorus]
And if I'm not good enough, then baby there's the door
I bet you, you won't find another who gon' give you more
Baby I don't wanna waste my time changing how you feel
If you don't want me, someone else will
If I'm not, if I'm not good enough

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
