Verse 1
I always play Russian Roulette in my head
Seventeen black and twenty-nine red
How far from the gutter
How far from the pew
I'll always remember to forget about you
Chorus
A good man is hard to find
Only strangers sleep in my bed
My favorite words are good-bye
And my favorite color is red
Verse 2
A long dead soldier looks out
From the frame
No one remembers his war; no one
Remembers his name
Verse 3
Go out to the meadow;
Scare off all the crows
It does nothing but rain here,
And nothing will grow
Chorus
A good man is hard to find
Only strangers sleep in my bed
My favorite words are good-bye
And my favorite color is
my favorite color is
my favorite color is red
