Hailey Whitters - Janice at the Hotel Bar lyrics

She believes in face cream at
The Walgreens and ruby-red lips
She'd take a vodka over dessert
 sugar goes straight to your hips
And she don't smoke cigarettes 'cause
It ain't lady-like
She'll cuss like a sailor
She ain't afraid to fight
She mows her own lawn and
Talks on her landline
She's got a granddaughter, still single
Can't say she's surprised
Eats sardines by the can and
Berries from a vine
Be careful with the truth, girl
But don't you ever lie

And stay off the pills
But get on the pill if you
Ain't ready to start a family
And pay all your bills but give some away
All that money won't make you happy
Make good love, good company
Drink good wine, make good coffee
Keep your chin up, but every once in a while
Have a good cry
Well, go on and make a good living, girl
Don't forget to make a good life

She says all men are babies and
That's just how they roll
They'll drive you crazy like a
Run in your hose
One day, you might want one
Make sure he's your best friend
'Cause if he can make you laugh
You might just make it to the end

Stay off the pills
But get on the pill if you
Ain't ready to start a family
And pay all your bills but give some away
All that money won't make you happy
Make good love, good company
Drink good wine, raise good babies
Keep your chin up
Ain't nothin' wrong with making a good wife
Well, go on and make a good living, girl
Don't forget to make a good life

And we were talkin' like old friends
Down at that hotel bar
She said a glass of red every day
Is damn good for the heart
And she said I'm not trying to preach
But it's just my own two cents
That the prize is looking back and knowing
It was all time well spent

Paris in the spring, in 1973
She said if there is a Heaven, well
That's right where I'll be
We said our goodbyes she gave me a wink and
Grabbed her coat to leave
I won't ever forget everything
Janice said to me

Make good love, good company
Drink good wine, make good coffee
Make a life so good that you
Ain't gotta live it twice
Go on and make a good living, girl
Don't forget to make a good life
Go on and make a good life
