Tuned To: “Oh Lord, It’s Hard To Be Humble” (Mac Davis)
Oh gosh, it’s hard to survive this
This life of uphill success
And just when you think that you made it
You get knocked back down to the ground
"To trudge on is to make it"
You all cry out to me
Oh gosh, it’s hard to survive it
I congratulate your “bravery”
Yes, you ask me if I’m comin'
But I’d rather sit at the side
And watch all of these wanderers
Fighting this mountain of life
You might think that I’m being lazy
But pardon my sense of humour
I just like to watch you all fallin'
Watch you fallin' back into the deep
Oh gosh, success is a struggle
And it’s funny to view you all
Climbing a mountain, near impossible
You’re always coming back for more
You never consider the alternative,
Cause you’re so busy heading for the top
Gracious, allow me to laugh out loud
When you fall back down, hitting the bottom
Well, you say that I’m a meaner
I guess mean, that I might be
But, I just like to laugh at these people
Cause I find funny their antics
Their lives are a joke and a lesson
And trust me that I really learn
But if you tell me your stories
Allow yourselves to burn
Cause, gosh, I find it humorous
To hear about your mischief
To listen to all your failures
’Specially those made in stupidity
Now, it’s not that I’m trying to be cruel
Cause if you sit down with me
I’ll tell you my life tale
And you’ll laugh out loud right beside me
Yes, you’ll laugh out loud
Accompanying me
