Harlan Howard - I've Got a Tiger by the TailLyrics

I've got a tiger by the tail it's plain to see And I won't be much when you get through with me I'm losing weight and turning mighty pale And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail Now I've thought the day I met you you were meek as a lamb Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans But now the pace we're living takes the wind from the sails And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail I've got a tiger by the tail Now every night you drag me where the bright lights are found There ain't no way to slow you down And 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 looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
