|
I live the kinda life most men only dream of |
|
I make my livin' writin' songs and singin' them |
|
But I'm forty-one years old and I ain't got no place to go |
|
When it's over |
|
So I hide my age and make the stage and |
|
Try to kick the footlights out again |
|
I throw my old guitar across the stage and |
|
Then my bassman takes the ball |
|
And the crowd goes nearly wild to see |
|
My guitar nearly fall |
|
After twenty years of pickin' we're still alive |
|
And kickin' and kickin' down the wall |
|
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out |
|
And walk away without a curtain call |
|
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again |
|
And try to hide the mood we're really in |
|
Might not put on our old Instamatic grin |
|
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again |
|
I live the kinda life most men only dream of |
|
And I make my livin' writin' songs and singin' them |
|
But I'm fortysome years old and I ain't got no place to go |
|
When it's over |
|
So I hide my age and make the stage and |
|
Try to kick the footlights out again |
