[00:00.00]Footlights - Joe Nichols
[00:15.33]I live the kinda life
[00:20.55]Most men only dream of
[00:29.05]I make my livin' writing songs
[00:37.03]And singin' them
[00:43.91]But I'm thirty one years old
[00:46.86]And I ain't got no place to go when it's over
[00:57.33]So I'll hide my age make the stage tonight
[01:02.35]Try to kick the footlights out again
[01:11.09]I'll throw my old guitar
[01:14.20]Across the stage and then my bass man takes a bone
[01:24.51]And the crowd goes nearly wild
[01:31.11]To see my guitar nearly fall
[01:39.80]After twenty years of pickin'
[01:42.98]I'm still alive and kickin' down the walls
[01:53.21]And tonight I'll kick the footlights out and
[01:57.57]Walk away without a curtain call
[02:06.39]Yea tonight I'm gonna kick the footlights out again
[02:13.35]And I'll try to hide the mood I'm really in
[02:19.96]Might not put on my old instamatic grin
[02:26.97]Yea tonight I'm gonna kick the footlights out again
[02:32.83]And again
[03:05.37]I live the kinda life
[03:09.70]Most men only dream of
[03:18.09]I make my livin' writing songs
[03:25.25]And singin' them
[03:32.88]But I'm thirty some years old
