I Got a Tiger by the Tail

[00:00.32] I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
[00:05.73] I won't be much when you get through with me
[00:11.02] Well, I'm a losing weight and a turnin' mighty pale
[00:15.31] Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[00:20.89] Well, I thought the day I met you, you were meek as a lamb
[00:26.51] Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
[00:31.43] But now the pace we're livin' takes the wind from my sails
[00:36.47] And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[00:40.35] I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
[00:47.92] I won't be much when you get through with me
[00:52.22] Well, I'm a losing weight and a turnin' mighty pale
[00:56.98] Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[01:01.89] Well, every night you drag me where the bright lights are found
[01:27.70] There ain't no way to slow you down
[01:32.33] I'm as 'bout as helpless as a leaf in a gale
[01:37.76] And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
[01:42.26] I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
[01:47.79] I won't be much when you get through with me
[01:53.32] Well, I'm a losing weight and a turnin' mighty pale
[01:57.78] Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
