Footlights

Joe Nichols - Footlights Lyrics

I live the kinda lifeMost men only dream ofI make my livin' writing songsAnd singin' themBut I'm 31 years oldAnd I ain't got no place to go, when it's overSo I'll hide my age and make the stage tonightTry to kick the footlights out againI'll throw my old guitarAcross the stage and then my bass man takes a boneAnd the crowd goes nearly wildTo see my guitar nearly fallAfter 20 years of pickin'I'm still alive and kickin' down the wallsAnd tonight I'll kick the footlights out andWalk away without a curtain callYea tonight I'm gonna kick the footlights out againAnd I'll try to hide the mood I'm really inMight not put on my old instamatic grinYea tonight I'm gonna kick the footlights out againAnd againI live the kinda lifeMost men only dream ofI make my livin' writing songsAnd singin' themBut I'm 30 some years oldAnd I ain't got no place to go, when it's overSo I'll hide my age and make the stage tonightTry to kick the footlights out again
