Buck Owens - Buck 'Em! Volume 2: The Music Of Buck Owens (1967-1975)

I've Got A Tiger By The Tail - Live at The White House

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'ma losing weight and a-turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Well, I thought the day I met you, you were meek like a lamb
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
And now, the pace we're living takes the wind from my sails
Hey, 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'ma losing weight and a turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Well, every night you drag me where the bright lights are found
And there ain't no way to slow you down
I'm about as helpless as a leaf in a gale
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
I'ma losing weight and a-turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
