1
I live the kinda life most men only dream of
2
I make my livin' writin' songs and singin' them
3
But I'm forty-one years old and I ain't got no place to go
4
When it's over
5
So I hide my age and make the stage and
6
Try to kick the footlights out again.
7
I throw my old guitar across the stage and
8
Then my bassman takes the ball
9
And the crowd goes nearly wild to see
10
My guitar nearly fall
11
After twenty years of pickin' we're still alive
12
And kickin' and kickin' down the wall
13
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out
14
And walk away without a curtain call.
15
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again
16
And try to hide the mood we're really in
17
Might not put on our old Instamatic grin
18
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again.
19
I live the kinda life most men only dream of
20
And I make my livin' writin' songs and singin' them
21
But I'm fortysome years old and I ain't got no place to go
22
When it's over
23
So I hide my age and make the stage and
24
Try to kick the footlights out again...
