Country Joe McDonald - Tiger By The Tail lyrics

Howard-Owens I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see; I won't be much when you get thru' with me. Well, I'm a losing weight and a turnin' mighty pale. Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail. Well, I thought the day I met you, you were meek as a lamb; Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans. But now, the pace we're livin' takes the wind from my sails And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail. I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see; I won't be much when you get thru' with me. Well,I'm a losing weight and a turnin' mighty pale. Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail. Well, ev'ry night you drag me where the bright lights are found; There ain't no way to slow you down I'm as 'bout as helpless as a leaf in a gale; And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail. I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see; I won't be much when you get thru' with me. Well,I'm a losing weight and a turnin' mighty pale. Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail.
