Karaoke Track: Footlights by Merle Haggard (Dream Catcher)

llive the kinda life

that most men only dream of

I make my livin&#39; writin&#39; songs

and singin&#39; them

But I&#39;m fOIty one years old and I ain&#39;t
got no place to go, When it&#39;s over.
So I hide my age and make the stage

and try to kick the footlights out again

I throw my old guitar across the stage
and then my bassman takes the ball
And the crowd goes nearly wild to see

My guitar nearly fall

And the crowd goes nearly wild to see

My guitar nearly fall

My guitar nearly fall

After twenty

years of pickin&#39;
we&#39;re still alive

and kickin&#39; down the wall

Tonight we&#39;ll kick
the footlights out

And walk away

without a curtain call.

Tonight i&#39;ll kick

the footlights out again

And try to hide

the mood i&#39;m really in

INSTRUMENTAL

that most men only dream of

I make my livin&#39; writin&#39; songs

and singin&#39; them...

I make my livin&#39; writin&#39; songs

and singin&#39; them...

and singin&#39; them...

But I&#39;m fOIty one years old and I ain&#39;t
got no place to go, When it&#39;s over.
So I&#39;ll hide my age and make the stage
and try to kick the footlights out again
