Waylon Jennings - Entertainer lyrics

Album: Never Could Toe the Mark <RCA Victor> (1984)

(Billy Joel)

I´m the entertainer,
I know just where I stand
Another serenader,
Another long haired man.

Today I´m your champion,
I may have won your heart
But I know the game,
You will forget my name.

I would not be here
In another yeahr
If I do not stay
On the charts

I´m the entertainer
Had to pay my price
Things I did not know at 1st
I learned by doing twice.

But still they come to haunt me
Still they want their say
So I learn to dance
With my hands in my pants.

Rub my neck
And just write em a check
And they will be on their way.

I´m the entertainer
I have been all around the world
I played all kinds of places
Played all kinds of girls.

I do not remember faces
I do not remember names
What the hell, it is just as well
´Cause after a while
And a thousand miles
It all becomes the same.

I´m the entertainer
I come to do my show
You heard my latest record
Spin on the radio.

Well, it took me yeahrs to write it
The best yeahrs of my life
It is a beautiful song
But it ran too long
Want to have a hit
You´ve got to make it fit
So they cut it down to 3:05.

I´m the entertainer
Idol of my age
Make all kinds of money
Boy, when I go on the stage.

They see me in the paper
And in the magazines
If I go cold
My feet get sore
Put me in the back
Of the discount rack
Like another can of beans.

I´m the entertainer
I know just where I stand
Another serenader,
Another long haired man.

I´m the entertainer...
