Love's Been Good To Me Lyrics

Artist: Johnny Cash
Album: American V: A Hundred Highways

Love's Been Good To Me
(Rod McKuen)

I have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a home
Still in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while along the way
Love's been good to me

There was a girl in Denver
Before the summer storm
Oh, her eyes were tender
Oh, her arms were warm
And she could smile away the thunder
Kiss away the rain
Even though she's gone away
You won't hear me complain

I have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a home
Still in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while along the way
Love's been good to me

There was a girl in Portland
Before the winter chill
We used to go a-courtin'
Along October hill
And she could laugh away the dark clouds
Cry away the snow
It seems like only yesterday
As down the road I go

I've been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a home
Still in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while along the way
Love's been good to me

Comments/Interpretations
by Matakaji on 9/10/2008 10:00pm It is a beautiful lyrics that describe well a lucky rover's life. The rover enjoyed the beauty of life and had been lucky all the way especially with his opposite mate. Mark Lindsay rendition of this song seems a perfect delivery.
