Ol' Troubadours Like Me

I've played New York City
I've played Tootsie's Lounge
I've played in every Baptist Church
And dive bar in this town
I once played for the president
And twice with Johnny Cash
I can play em fast or play em slow
But most are about half-fast

Chorus
It's what I do, It's who I am
I know you don't give a damn
But tel me where would the young-guns be
If it wasn't for Ol troubadours like me

Billings Montana
Back in 85
The biggest bar brawl I ever saw
But I made it out alive
Broke down down in Texas
Just south of San Antone
Til I caught a ride on a cattle drive
Cause the show must go on

Chorus

Bridge
I've played big stadiums
Seen em lined out the door
And I've played my share to empty chairs
For tips and nothing more

Chorus
