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