I've Got a Tiger By the Tail
I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losin' weight and a turnin' mighty pale
Looks like I got a tiger by the tail
Well, I thought the day I met you
You were meek as a lamb
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
Now the pace we're livin' takes the wind from my sail
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
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losin' weight and a turnin' mighty pale
Looks like I got a tiger by the tail
Every night you drag me
Where the bright lights are found
There ain't no way to slow you down
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
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losin' weight and a turnin' mighty pale
Looks like I got a tiger by the tail
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losin' weight and a turnin' mighty pale
Looks like I got a tiger by the tail
Well, I thought the day I met you
You were meek as a lamb
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
Now the pace we're livin' takes the wind from my sail
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
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losin' weight and a turnin' mighty pale
Looks like I got a tiger by the tail
Every night you drag me
Where the bright lights are found
There ain't no way to slow you down
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
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well, I'm losin' weight and a turnin' mighty pale
Looks like I got a tiger by the tail
