The Entertainer Lyrics

Sitting in a chair

Leaning way back

Listen to the playback

Laidback

Looking back on tracks

Shows, small and packed

People keep asking me about Marlee

Marlee Is she nice

Well of course she is

Will you ever work with Marshall

Hey, if it happens it happens

Leave it at that

Your Fathers in a country band

You're so different, I don't understand

Love that song that you do with your Dad

I'm sure he's made you mad

Every town it's the same questions

But I'm blessed to be under these lights

Hopefully, leave impressions

But I know

There will always be someone on my heels

That's a fact

The entertainer

The entertainer

I'm not your prophet

I'm not the savior

I'm the entertainer

The entertainer

I'm the entertainer

Just an entertainer

I sometimes get questions

About my expressions

My direction

What was I like before

Bullied, beaten up, misbehaven

Told to straighten up

I put my pants on the same way as you

Mow the lawn, wash my car

Take my nephew to the zoo

I'm appreciative of it all

For real, that's the truth

It comes with the territory

Can't deny times I love the glory

Some say It's historic

Gotta keep on being metaphoric

Not become drawn out, boring

In the back of my mind

The clock is ticking

Keep my eye on the ball

Know who's pitching

If I had to do it over again

Without a doubt I'll be line reenlisting

The entertainer

The entertainer

I'm not your prophet

I'm not the savior

I'm the entertainer

The entertainer

I'm the entertainer

Just an entertainer

There's so many lessons I've learned

About human nature

On the road from the people I meet

The way I am looked at

And the way I'm perceived

People think people like me

Can never achieve

It's what many believe

It's what they believe

Some act like I've always got

Something up my sleeve

Or a hidden agenda, what they see can't be me

Keep giving me the third degree

No Illusionist, no saint

Hey no man, I can't stop the rain

Only here to entertain, entertain

Love more than anything

To hit that stage, so

Before it's all said and done

I hope to paint a picture, tell a story

We're all extraordinary

Just some of us are fortunate enough

To get a break

The entertainer

The entertainer

I'm not your prophet

I'm not the savior

I'm the entertainer

The entertainer

I'm the entertainer

Just an entertainer
