I`ve Got A Tiger By The Tail — текст песни (David Houston)

I`ve got a tiger by the tail it`s plain to see
I won`t be much when you get thru with me
Well I`m losing weight and turning mighty pale looks like I`ve got a tiger by the tail

Well I thought the day I met you you were meek as a lamb
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
Now the pace we`re living takes the wind from my sails
And it looks like I`ve got a tiger by the tail
I`ve got a tiger by the tail...
[ guitar - steel ]
Well every night you drag me where the bright lights are found
There ain`t no way to try to slow you down
I`m about as helpless as a leaf in a gale and it looks like I`ve got a tiger by the tail
I`ve got a tiger by the tail...
Looks like I`ve got a tiger by the tail
