I know I'll probably never make a million bucks
And there's always a stage
Captain and cokes and bar room jokes
Hey, friend don't you know?
Everything's going my way
Guess you could say
I don't need that stuff 'cause I've got friends like you
I'm living in the big time
To buy me drinks and boats and planes that I can use
Everything's just fine
In my simple way
And you're a really big so-and-so
And there's always a stage
In my simple way
And a beautiful babe to squeeze my lime
Well, I'm not doing bad myself
I'm living in the big time
And a beautiful babe to squeeze my lime
Keep me feeling fine
And I sing my songs in the sunshine
In my simple way
I'm living in the big time
Well, I bet your wife is beautiful
In that house up on the hill
Today is even better than yesterday
Friend, I've got a jar to fill
And I sing my songs in the sunshine
No worries on my mind
I play guitar
Captain and cokes and bar room jokes
I know your really living
In my simple way
Guess you could say
So if you feel like giving
And there's always a stage
And a beautiful babe to squeeze my lime
But saving accounts and the I.R.S never worry me much
I'm living in the big time
I'm having the time of my life
Keep me feeling fine
I play guitar
Before you close your tab, remember I play for tips
Guess you could say
Guess you could say
I'm glad you stumbled in here on your business trip
