[00:02.60] Back a few months ago,
[00:03.80] I was headlinin' a great big nightclub,
[00:09.40] and they put me up a couple days early.
[00:11.40] I came in a couple days early,
[00:12.50] and they put me up in what they call the "Star Suite".
[00:17.00] Now here I am,
[00:18.60] headlinin' in one of the biggest nightclubs in the country,
[00:21.40] and I wake up at eight o'clock in the morning in this "Star Suite"
[00:25.30] ...all by myself.
[00:27.90] "Awwww"
[00:28.90] Yeah, that's what I said, "Awwww"
[00:31.90] But I did what I've always done, man, to cheer myself up.
[00:34.50] I picked up my guitar,
[00:36.10] I sat down, and I wrote me a little song.
[00:40.00] Now this is how it feels to be alone at the top of the hill,
[00:43.10] tryin' to figure out why.
[00:46.10] Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
[00:50.50] When you're perfect in every way
[00:54.90] I can't wait to look in the mirror
[00:59.30] 'Cause I get better lookin' each day
[01:03.80] To know me is to love me
[01:08.00] I must be a hell of a man
[01:12.40] Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
[01:16.50] But I'm doin' the best that I can!
[01:25.80] I used to have a girlfriend
[01:30.00] But I guess she just couldn't compete
[01:34.40] With all of these love-starved women
[01:38.30] Who keep clamoring at my feet
[01:42.80] Well, I could prob'ly find me another
[01:47.20] But I guess they're all in awe of me
[01:51.60] Who cares?
[01:52.70] I never get lonesome
[01:55.70] 'Cause I treasure my own company
[01:59.60] Oooooh Lord, it's hard to be humble
[02:06.80] When you're perfect in every way
[02:10.20] (Can't wait to look in the mirror)
[02:11.40] I can't wait to look in the mirror
[02:14.30] (Help me out now, come on)
[02:15.60] I get better lookin' each day
[02:19.00] (To know me is to what?)
[02:20.00] To know me is to love me
[02:22.80] (Must be a hell of a man)
[02:24.20] I must be a hell of a man
[02:27.40] (Oh Lord, it's hard)
[02:28.50] Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
[02:31.60] (When you're doin' what?)
[02:32.60] We're doin' the best that we can
[02:41.90] I guess you could say I'm a loner
[02:45.90] A cowboy outlaw, tough, and proud
[02:49.90] Well, I could have lots of friends if I wanted
[02:54.20] But then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd
[02:58.60] Some folks say that I'm "egotistical"
[03:02.90] Hell, I don't even know what that means
[03:07.30] I guess it has something to do with the way
[03:11.30] That I fill out my skin tight blue jeans
[03:15.10] Oooooh........
[03:17.90] Come on, where's all the kickers in here?!
[03:19.80] Oooooh Lord, it's hard to be humble
[03:24.00] (When you're perfect in every way)
[03:25.20] When you're perfect in every way
[03:28.00] (Can't wait to look in the mirror)
[03:29.40] I can't wait to look in the mirror
[03:32.50] ('Cause I get better lookin')
[03:33.90] I get better lookin' each day
[03:36.70] (To know me is to what?)
[03:38.10] To know me is to love me
[03:41.20] (Must be a hell of a man)
[03:42.60] I must be a hell of a man
[03:45.40] (Oh Lord, it's hard)
[03:46.60] Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
[03:49.80] (What are we doin'?)
[03:50.80] We're doin' the best that we can
[03:54.10] (One more time, what are we doin'?)
[03:56.00] We're doing the best that we can
[04:02.30] Give yourselves a hand
[04:04.00] Yeeee-haw!
