Love's Been Good to Me - Nina Simone

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
