Ive Got A Tiger By The Tail - Harlan Howard

作词：B Owens/H Howard

作曲：B Owens/H Howard

I've got a tiger by the tail it's plain to see

And I won't be much when you get through with me

I'm losing weight and turning mighty pale

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Now I've thought the day I met you you were meek as a lamb

Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans

But now the pace we're living takes the wind from the sails

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

I've got a tiger by the tail it's plain to see

And I won't be much when you get through with me

I'm losing weight and turning mighty pale

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Now every night you drag me where the bright lights are found

There ain't no way to slow you down

And 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 it's plain to see

And I won't be much when you get through with me

I'm losing weight and turning mighty pale

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
