[Verse 1]
My hair might be a little too long for your taste my friend
My car might cost a little less than that suit you're wearing
I'm glad you stumbled in here on your business trip
Before you close your tab, remember I play for tips

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well I bet your wife is beautiful
And you're a really big so-and-so
Well I'm not doin' bad myself
Hey friend don't you know

[Chorus 1]
I play guitar and I sing my songs in the sunshine
Captain and cokes and bar room jokes keep me feeling fine

[Chorus 2]
And there's always a stage and a beautiful babe
To squeeze my lime
In my simple way, guess you could say
I'm living in the big time

[Verse 2]
I know I'll probably never make a million bucks
But savings accounts and the IRS never worry me much
I don't need that stuff cause I've got friends like you
To buy me drinks, have boats and planes that I can use
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I know you're really living
In that house up on the hill
So if you feel like giving
Friend I've got a jar to fill

[Chorus 1]
I play guitar and I sing my songs in the sunshine
Captain and cokes and bar room jokes keep me feelin' fine

[Chorus 2]
And there's always a stage and a beautiful babe
To squeeze my lime
In my simple way, guess you could say
I'm living in the big time

[Bridge]
I'm having the time of my life
No worries on my mind
Everything's just fine
Today is even better than yesterday
Everything's going my way
I'm livin' in the big time

[Chorus 2]
And there's always a stage and a beautiful babe
To squeeze my lime
In my simple way, guess you could say
I'm living in the big time
[Outro]
In my simple way, guess you could say
I'm living in the big time
