"Life Of A Country Singer" lyrics

"Life Of A Country Singer"

The life of a country singer
Is a life spent living late at night
Rolling slow down an empty Houston highway
Not a care in the world on earth where it goes
Now this might sound like just the same old story
And, friend, maybe it's true
But I'm riding out to meet my glory
And breaking my damn heart in songs for you

The life of a country singer
Is the life between right and wrong
Flashing signs never end, you do it over and over again
Living life in a country song

There's a long, long line of country singers
Singing songs about living late at night
I ain't the first one or the best but I'm different
Baby I'm just me, nothing more, nothing less

The life of a country singer
Is the life between right and wrong
Flashing signs never end, you do it over and over again
Living life in a country song
Neon lights never end, you do it over and over again
In the life of a country singer
