Big Life

Glenn Frey


Please allow me to introduce myself  
Although you probably know my name  
You may have seen me in the tabloids darlin'  
I'm a player in the game  
I own this airline and a baseball team  
I started out with nothing, just a dream  
Now I'm worth millions, what can I say?  
Then I meet a pretty girl like you,  
it must be my lucky day  

Chorus:  
Big Life, goin' in style  
Big Life, drivin' me wild  
Big Life, I'm telling you true  
I've got a big old life but I've got room for you  

Right now we're flying over some land I own  
Yeh, that's Aspen right down there  
I go skiing there at Christmas time  
With Don and Jack and Cher  
Hey, maybe when we get to LA, honey  
You'd like to come along with me  
and watch me spend my money  
You can use my limousine to pick up all your friends  
We'll meet at my house in the hills,  
where the party never ends  

Big Life, I just can't stop  
Big Life, I wanna stay on top  
Big Life, goin' in style  
Sometimes you've got to get away for a while  

I'll take you to my beach house in Hawaii  
We'll find some peace, just you, my staff and I  
No need to be so wary, it isn't necessary  
You see I'm just an ordinary guy  

With a big life, I'm a man on the move  
Big Life, I got something to prove  
Big Life, I can stand on my own  
I'm so m isunderstood, I'm so alone  

They say that I'm in trouble now  
They say I'm on the run  
They say my stock is going down  
But I'm still having fun  

I can take pressure, I can stand the heat .
I say I'm still the man, I still compete  
I'm calling all the shots, I'm still the boss  
I'm sueing everyone I don't care what it costs  

Big Life, took me for a ride  
Big Life, I got nowhere to hide  
Big Life, you better be tough  
Big Life, I've had enough.
