Song and Dance Man - Tommy Emmanuel/Ricky Skaggs
Written by:Mike McClellan
I'm used to living by myself
Always on the road
Making light of other peoples woes
I don't need to take much more
Than just a song or two
Even a smile can help me lift the load
I'm just a song and dance man
Going from town to town
Playing one night shows
And country rodeos
I'm just a song and dance man
Living on a smile
I share your laughter anywhere I go
I don't care to much for cities
I ain't seen one I'd call home
The only dust they've got there
Just plain dirt
And noone takes you in
Unless they want you of the streets
I get the feeling some folks
Fear a smile might hurt
I'm just a song and dance man
Going from town to town
Playing one night shows
And country rodeos
I'm just a song and dance man
Living on a smile
I share your laughter anywhere I go
I gave up looking for answers a
Long long time ago
Life's just taking chances ask any dancer
One foot wrong and it's over done
I won't ask much of your time
All that you recall my name
Fame is just a momentary curse
But if you recall a song or two
That lingers when I'm gone
Then I guess a song and dance man works
I'm just a song and dance man
Going from town to town
Playing one night shows
And country rodeos
I'm just a song and dance man
Living on a smile
I share your laughter anywhere I go
I'm just a song and dance man
Going from town to town
Playing one night shows
And country rodeos
I'm just a song and dance man
Living on a smile
I share your laughter anywhere I go
I share your laughter anywhere I go
