You're a good woman and a good friend

You got a good heart even when it's busted and bent

Lipstick and perfume

Under gram queen

Wearing loneliness like a costume for the whole world to see

And if your money runs out

And your good looks fade

May your kindness remain

Oh

May your kindness remain

Broke on a barstool

Throwin' your paycheck away

On overpriced booze

Slots

And valet

Fortune might buy diamonds

All shiny and new

But it can't buy you happiness or love

That is true

And if your money runs out

And your good looks fade

May your kindness remain

Oh

May your kindness remain

The richest of people

Aren't rich with Elvis

Cars

Or fame

No they're not rich with something

That can be bought or arranged

No

It's kindness that makes them beautiful

And a kind heart don't cost a dime

It's a gif that keeps giving

For the rest of your life

And if your money runs out

And your good looks fade

May your kindness remain

Oh

May your kindness remain

May your kindness remain

Oh

May your kindness remain
