It Ain't Easy Bein' Me Lyrics - Blake Shelton

1 There ought to be a town out there,

2 Named for how I feel.

3 Yeah I could be the mayor down there,

4 And say welcome to Sorryville.

5 It won't be on a map nowhere,

6 You might say that it doesn't exist,

7 But if you make enough wrong turns

8 It'd be hard to miss.

9 There ought to be a bridge somewhere

10 They could dedicate to me.

11 I'd probably come to the ceremony

12 With a can of gasoline;

13 Walk on over to the other side

14 And there I'd light a match

15 And sit and stare through the smoke and the flames

16 Wonderin' how I'm ever gonna get back.

17 Why do I do the things I do?

18 Was I born this way? Am I a self-made fool?

19 I shoot the lights and curse the dark;

20 I need your love but I break your heart;

21 And I know the words that'll bring you back,

22 But I don't say nothin' as I watch you pack.

23 I had to work to be the jerk I've come to be;

24 It ain't easy bein' me.

25 Ought to be a side show act for freaks like me;

26 Yeah I could be the star of the show

27 With my name on the marquee.

28 In a room with a big red button that says "Do Not Touch,"

29 And twice a day I'd mash it down

30 And you could watch me self-destruct.

31 Why do I do the things I do?

32 Was I born this way? Am I a self-made fool?

33 I shoot the lights and curse the dark;

34 I need your love but I break your heart;

35 And I know the words that'll bring you back,

36 But I don't say nothin' as I watch you pack.

37 I had to work to be the jerk I've come to be;

38 It ain't easy bein' me.
