Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror
I get better looking each day

To know me is to love me
I must be a hell of a man
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
But we're doing the best that we can

I used to have a girlfriend
But I guess she couldn't compete
With all of these love-starved women
Clamoring at my feet

Well, I probably could find me another
But I guess they're all in awe of me
Who cares? I never get lonesome
Cause I treasure my own company

Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble (When you're perfect!)
When you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror (I get better looking!)
Because I get better looking each day (to know me!)
To know me is to love me (I must be a what?)
I must be a hell of a man
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
But we're doing the best that we can

Well, I guess you could say I'm a loner
A cowboy outlaw tough and proud
I could have lots of friends if I wanted
But then I wouldn't stand out from the crowd

Now some folks say I'm egotistical
Hell, I don't even know what that means
But I guess it has something to do with the way
That I fill out my skin tight blue jeans

Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble (When you're perfect!)
When you're perfect in every way (I can't wait!)
I can't wait to look in the mirror (I get better looking!)
Cause I get better looking each day
To know me is to love me (I must be a what?)
I must be a hell of a man
Oh lord it's hard to be humble
But we're doing the best that we can
Oh lord it's hard to be humble
But we're doing the best that we can
