"Hidin Behind This Microphone" lyrics

Tonight I feel as empty as the hole in this guitar
The songs I'm singin' seem so out of tune
But the people paid good money, so I've gotta play the star
And do the only thing that I know how to do

Keep on singin'
Keep on smilin'
Try to make the people dance and drink a while then
Maybe they won't know I'm feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone

I wouldn't change one minute about the life I get to live
Heaven knows that I'm one lucky man
But this damn dream just keeps on takin' more than I give
And often times I wonder who I really am

But I keep on singin'
Keep on smilin'
Try to make the people dance and drink a while then
Maybe they won't know I'm feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone

I'll take the picture
I'll shake the hand
I know the music's gonna heal me
So I'll just hold on until then

And keep on singin'
Keep on smilin'
Try to make the people dance and drink a while then
Maybe they won't know I'm feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone
Yeah, it's hell on me, feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone
Yeah, up here hidin' behind this microphone
