Hidin Behind This Microphone Lyrics

Tonight I feel as empty as the hole in this guitar
The songs I'm singing seem so out of tune
But the people paid good money so I gotta play the star
And do the only thing I know how to do

Keep on singin'
Keep on smilin'
Try to make the people dance and drink a while
Then maybe they won't know I'm feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone

I wouldn't change one minute about the life I get to live
Heaven knows that I'm one lucky man
But this damn dream just keeps on takin' more than I give
And often times I wonder who I really am

But I keep on singin'
Keep on smilin'
Try to make the people dance and drink a while
Then maybe they won't know I'm feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone

I'll take the picture
I'll shake the hand
I know the music's gonna heal me
So I'll just hold on until then

And keep on singin'
Keep on smilin'
Try to make the people dance and drink a while
Then maybe they won't know I'm feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone
Yeah it's hell on me feelin' so alone
Hidin' behind this microphone
Yeah up here hidin' behind this microphone
