Bilingual
I used to read about it in movie magazines
People drinkin' champagne and ridin' limousines
Shoppin' at the finest stores, fancy restaurants
Diamond rings and everything that one could ever want
Not bad (Not bad)
I used to say to myself
Not bad (Not bad)
They've done alright for themselves
Livin' high and bein' free in the land of opportunity
Not bad (Not bad)
I used to think how lucky those people really were
Back when I was just a kid and people still wore fur
I used to fantasize that I could even be a star
With money, clothes, a penthouse suite and my own fancy car
Not bad (Not bad)
Hey, look at me, I made it
Not bad (Not bad)
I got my own pink Mercedes
For a little country girl like me enjoyin' such prosperity
Not bad (Not bad)
ย
Ah, not bad (Not bad)
It ain't bad, it ain't bad, it ain't bad
ย
Sometimes I look around me, I can't believe it's true
To think of where I came from and where I've gotten to
Not bad (It ain't bad, it ain't bad)
From rags to riches
Not bad (Bad)
Got a little money in my britches
To do the things you wanna do and
It's good to know dreams do come true
Not bad (It ain't bad)
Not bad (Not bad)
If I do say so myself
Not bad (Not bad)
I've got a couple trophies on my shelf
Not bad (Not bad)
But I'm rollin' in sweet clover
Not bad (Not bad)
Well, my cup runneth over
Livin' high and bein' free in the land of opportunity
Not bad (It ain't bad)
To do the things you wanna do and it's
Good to know dreams do come true (They do)
Not bad (Bad)
