Oh lord it's hard to be humble
when you're perfect in every way
each time I look in the mirror
I get better looking each day
to know me is to love me
I must be one hell of a man
Oh lord it's hard to be humble
but I'm doing the best that I can.

Cant find who made this anywhere

That was a Mac Davis (country singer) song, Kev. He wrote and recorded it. He also composed "In the Ghetto", (popularized by Elvis), "Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me" and many others.

I'm thinking Steve Miller, but just a guess. Funny, I was singing that the other day at work!

I expected this to be one of those "one offs" I had no idea that the songwriter had such a pedigree. Thanks for that raggedy.

I must admit I'm shocked to find that it was mac davis, although I shouldn't be, considering some of his other tunes! Here are the lyrics.

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror
Cuz I get better lookin 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 I'm doin' the best that I can

I used to have a girlfriend
But I guess she just couldn't compete
With all these love starved women
Who keep 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
Cuz I treasure my own company

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror
Cuz I get better lookin 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 I'm doin the best that I can

I guess you could say I am a loner
A cowboy all locked up and proud
Well I could have lots of friends if I wanted
But then I wouldn't stand out in a crowd

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