Bilingual
I live the kinda life
Most men only dream of
I make my living writing songs
And singing them
ย
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
ย
I throw my old guitar across the stage
Then my bass man takes the ball
And the crowd goes nearly wild
To see my guitar nearly fall
ย
After twenty years of picking
Still I'm kicking down the walls
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out and walk away
Without a curtain call
ย
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again
Try to hide the mood we're really in
I'll put on my instamatic grin
Tonight we'll kick the footlights out again
ย
I live the kinda life
Most men only dream of
I make my living writing songs
And singing them
ย
But I'm forty-one years old, and I ain't got no place to go
When it's over
And I hide my age and make the stage
And try to kick the footlights out again
