Hamburger steak, Holiday Inn
That's the kinda world that I live in
Play a different town most every night
Lovin' your woman write a new song that's my life

That's my life and I love it that's my life
There ain't nothin' else in the world above it
I see people all alone pickin' their guitars and singin' their songs
But I tell 'em forget it cause you can't fake it
If you're gonna make it you've gotta live it

I got a big bus with a TV and a bar
And a little room in the back for me and my ole guitar
Gotta stop and fuel up every five hundred miles
Give a picture to the waitress eat a little breakfast country style

That's my life and I love it that's my life
There ain't nothin' else in the world above it
I see people all alone pickin' their guitars and singin' their songs
But I tell 'em forget it cause you can't fake it
If you're gonna make it you've gotta live it

We get home to Nashville on a Monday night
Record songs on Tuesday and on Wednesday take out the wife
But then on Thursday night it's back on the road
I don't care if it's Montana or down in Louisiana just as long as I go
That's my life and I love it that's my life
There ain't nothin' else in the world above it
I see people all alone pickin' their guitars and singin' their songs
But I tell 'em forget it cause you can't fake it
If you're gonna make it you've gotta live it
