Guys Like Me
Gary Allan · See If I Care [MCA] [2003]
(Kostas/Treant Summar)
Well, there's no more smokey bars in California,
There ain't no wildlife left in Tennessee,
But I keep on living every song I'm singing,
And their trying to put an end to guys like me.
All that's left in Bakersfield is a jukebox,
And it's haunted by old songs and memories,
It's getting hard to find a place to play my guitar,
And their trying to put an end to guys like me.
Well, I'd like to find a place where love surrounds me,
Some town where they don't mind me hanging around,
A place where life don't move to fast,
And what you are is not a thing of the past.
Where you can land your dreams on solid ground,
Well, I'm sitting on a barstool down on Broadway,
Waiting for my turn to sing my dreams,
I'm just a California boy with my old guitar,
And their trying to put and end to guys like me.

And their trying to put and end to guys like me.
Yeah, their trying to put an end to guys like me...
