"LIVE THE LIFE I LOVE" Here I go again, singin’ in a bar The smoke hangs so heavy, it’s hard to see the star Its neon signs and two-steps, saw dust floors and cigarettes Sinners, saints and old men, trying to forget It started with a guitar, when I was only nine An eight track in my Dad’s pick-up, with 14 Carrot Mind Now I’m singin’ for a livin’, Lord knows how hard I’ve tried There ain’t much recognition, and not much room for pride CHORUES Some folks barley listen, and some folks stay all night Some don’t even know my name, or look me in the eye It’s all I’ve ever wanted, and I’ll never give it up Play some more Gene Watson, and live the life I love Waitress says, "Its last call… drink one more and go on home" Someone sends up a napkin, "Please play "Chisled in Stone" For once the place falls silent, I play every note just right I’ve finally been discovered, until tomorrow night MODIFIED CHORUS Some folks sit and listen, and some folks buy me beer Some think I’ll be famous, and some folks just don’t care And it’s not the "Grand Ol’ Opry", but I’ll never give it up Play some more Vern Gosden, and live the life the life I love Tag: Yea, Play’em one more Willie, and live the life I love
