  Oh lord,  it's hard to be humble,
  When you're perfect in every way,
  I can't wait to look in the mirror,
  I get better looking each day.
  To know me is to love me,
  I must be a hell of a man,
  Oh lord it's hard to be humble,
  But I'm doing  the best that I can.
 I used  to have a girlfriend,
 But I guess she just couldn't compete,
 With all of these love starved women,
 Who keep clamoring at my feet.
 Well I prob'ly could find me another,
 But I guess they're all in awe of me,
 Who cares, I never get lonesome.
 'Cause I treasure  my own company.
  Oh lord,  it's hard to be humble,
  When you're perfect in every way,
  I can't wait to look in the mirror,
  I get better looking each day.
  To know me is to love me,
  I must be a hell of a man,
  Oh lord it's hard to be humble,
  But I'm doing  the best that I can.
 I guess  you could say I'm a loner,
 A cowboy outlaw tough and proud,
 I could have lots of friends if I wanted,
 But then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd.
 Some folks say that I'm egotistical,
 Hell, I don't even know what that means,
 I guess it has something to do  with the way
 That I fill  out my skin tight blue jeans.
  Oh lord,  it's hard to be humble,
  When you're perfect in every way,
  I can't wait to look in the mirror,
  I get better looking each day.
  To know me is to love me,
  I must be a hell of a man,
  Oh lord it's hard to be humble,
  But we're doing  the best that we can.
