Big Life

Glenn Frey

Please allow me to introduce myself 
Although you probably know my name 
You may have seen me in the tabloids darlin' 
I'm a player in the game 
I own this airline and a baseball team 
I started out with nothing, just a dream 
Now I'm worth miilions, what can I say? 
Then I meet a pretty girl like you, 
It must be my lucky day 

Big life, goin' in style 
Big life, drivin' me wild 
Big life, I'm telling you true 
I've got a big old life but I've got room for you 

Right now we're flying over some land I own 
Yeh, that's Aspen right down there 
I go skiing there at Christmas time 
With Don and Jack and Cher 
Hey, maybe when we get to LA, honey 
You'd like to come along with me 
And watch me spend my money 
You can use my limousine to pick up all your friends 
We'll meet at my house in the hills, 
Where the party never ends 

Big life, I just can't stop 
Big life, I wanna stay on top 
Big life, goin' in style 
Sometimes you've got to get away for a while 

I'll take you to my beach house in Hawaii 
We'll find some peace, just you, my staff and I 
No need to be so wary, it isn't necessary 
You see I'm just an ordinary guy 

With a big life, I'm a man on the move 
Big life, I got something to prove 
Big life, I can stand on my own 
I'm so misunderstood, I'm so alone 

They say that I'm in trouble now 
They say I'm on the run 
They say my stock is going down 
But I'm still having fun 

I can take pressure, I can stand the heat 
I say I'm still the man, I still compete 
I'm calling all the shots, I'm still the boss 
I'm sueing everyone I don't care what it costs 

Big life, took me for a ride 
Big life, I got nowhere to hide 
Big life, you better be tough 
Big life, I've had enough
