    when perfection is yours in every way. I can't keep away from the mirror long, 'cause my reflection reveals my superior stature and charm. Those who know me love me, owing their affections to my being a hell of a man. Humility is difficult, but I'm trying as hard as I can. ;-)

    Just like Mac Davis sang in his song "It's Hard to Be Humble"

    Back of few months ago I was headling
    at a great big night club
    and they put me up at what they call the Star Suite:
    Now here I am headling
    at one of the biggest night clubs
    in the country and I wake up
    at eight o'clock in the morning
    in this Star suite all by myself.

    Aah that's what I said "Aah".
    But I did what I've always done to cheer myself up

    I picked up my guitar

    I sat down and wrote me a little song.
    Now this is how it feels to be alone
    at the top of the hill and trying to figure out why

    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    when you're perfect in every way.
    I can't wait to look in the mirror

    'cos I get better looking each day
    to know me is to love me

    I must be a hell of a man.
    O Lord it's hard to be humble
    but I'm doing the best that I can.


    I used to have a girlfriend
    but I guess she just could'n't complete
    with all of these lovestarved women
    who keep clamouring at my feet.
    Well I probably find me another
    but I guess they're all in awe of me

    who cares I never get lonesome
    cause I treasure my own company.

    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    when you're perfect in every way.
    I can't wait to look in the mirror

    'cos I get better looking each day
    to know me is to love me

    I must be a hell of a man.
    O Lord it's hard to be humble
    but I'm doing the best that I can.

    I guess you can say I'm a loner

    a cowboy outlaw tough and proud
    Well
    I could have lots of friends if I wanted
    but then I wouldn't stand out from the drowd

    some folks say that I'm "egotistical
    well I don't even know what that means
    I guess it has something to do with the
    way that I fill out my skintight blue jeans.

    Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
    when you're perfect in every way.
    I can't wait to look in the mirror

    'cos I get better looking each day
    to know me is to love me

    I must be a hell of a man.
    O Lord it's hard to be humble
    we are doing the best that we can.

    Jeez, you sound like my 17 year old son! He stands in the mirror and says, hey ma, you gotta admit I'm sexy I refuse to refer to my 17 year old child, as sexy , he drives me nuts.

    Good work Gopher! I was wondering if anyone would catch the reference, of if everyone would think that by pointing out my superiority I was just being a blow-hard. :-)
