It's Hard to Be Humble lyrics
[Spoken]
Back a few months ago, I was headlinin' in a great big nightclub and they put me up a couple days early. I came in a couple days early, and they put me up in what they call the "Star Suite". Now here I am, headlinin' in one of the biggest nightclubs in the country, and I wake up at eight o'clock in the morning in this "Star Suite" all by myself.
Awwww
Yeah, that's what I said: Awwwww, but I did what I've always done. Man, to cheer myself up I picked up my guitar. I sat down and I wrote me a little song. Now this is how it feels to be alone at the top of the hill and tryin' to figure out why:
[Sang]
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
when you're perfect in every way.
I can't wait to look in the mirror
'cause I get better looking each day.
To know me is to love me.
I must be a hell of a man.
Oh Lord It's hard to be humble,
but I'm doing the best that I can.
I used to have a girlfriend,
but I guess she just couldn't compete,
with all of these love-starved women,
who keep clamoring at my feet.
Oh I probably could find me another,
but I guess they're all in awe of me.
Who cares?
I never get lonesome
'cause I treasure my own company.
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble,
when you're perfect in every way.
-I can't wait to look in the mirror-
I can't wait to look in the mirror.
-Help me out now! Come on-
I get better looking each day.
-To know me is to what?-
To know me is to love me.
-Must be a hell of man-
I must be a hell of a man.
-Oh Lord It's hard-
Oh Lord It's hard to be humble.
-When you're doing what?-
We're doing the best that we can.
I guess you could say I'm a loner,
a cowboy outlaw, tough and proud.
Well I could have lots of friends if I wanted
but then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd.
Some folks say that I'm egotistical.
Hell, I don't even know what that means.
I guess it has something to do
with the way that I fill out my skin tight with jeans.
Oh -Come on! Where's all the kinders in here?-
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble.
-When you're perfect in every way-
When you're perfect in every way.
-Can't wait to look in the mirror-
I can't wait to look in the mirror.
-'cause I get better looking-
I get better looking each day.
-To know me is to what?-
To know me is to love me.
-Must be a hell of man-
I must be a hell of a man.
-Oh Lord It's hard-
Oh Lord It's hard to be humble.
-What are we doing?-
We're doing the best that we can.
-One more time! What are we doing?-
We're doing the best that we can.
-Give yourself a hand.-
HEE HAW
