back a few months ago i was headlinin’ 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
crowd awwww
mac yeah that’s what i said awwwww
but i did what i’ve always done man to cheer myself up
i picked up my 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
tryin’ to figure out why
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 lookin’ 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 doin’ the best that i can
i used to have a girlfriend
but i guess she just couldn’t compete
with all of these lovestarved women
who keep clamoring at my feet
well 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
ohh
lord it’s hard to be humble
when you’re perfect in every way
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 lookin’ each day
to know me is to what
to know me is to love me
must be a hell of a man
i must be a hell of a man
oh lord it’s hard
oh lord it’s hard to be humble
when you doin’ what
we’re doin’ the best that we can
i guess you could say i’m a loner
a cowboy outlaw tough and proud
well i could have lotsa 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 skintight blue jeans
ohh
come on where’s all the kickers 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 lookin’
i get better lookin’ each day
to know me is to what
to know me is to love me
must be a hell of a 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 doin’
we’re doin’ the best that we can
one more time what are we doin’
we’re doing the best that we can
give yourselves a hand
yeehaw
