I don?t know how many times I?ve sat here and
played this guitar

And dreamt about the future of someday being a big
star

And I watch the people as they listen, they drink
up and have a good time

The only care they have in the world is what
song?s next in line

Fear is an obstacle one we all have to face
You can either take it head on or you can stand in
second place
Dreams are a lifelong ambition when you give in
they do too
Just like momma always told me, it?s up to you
whether they come true

From the beer joints to the Opry, they all play
the same old songs

The only difference is the money, everybody still
sings along

I don?t know if I'm gonna make it but Lord knows
I?ve gotta try

So if anybody ever needs me from the beer joints
to the Opry is where I?ll be Some folks come
to listen to me, some folks come to drink
Some folks come to socialize and some folks they
come to think
I don?t care why you?re here, I'm just glad that
you showed up
And remember that we all live you and thanks for
always pickin? us up

Chorus

This life I lead is very hard to do
Thank God I love it so much
And for having good friends like you
