Everybody's Making It Big But Me Lyrics - Dr. Hook

Elvis he's a hero he's a superstar 

And I hear that Paul McCartney drives a Rolls Royce car 

And Dylan sings for millions 

And I just sing for free 

Oh everybody's makin' it big but me 

Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me 

Everybody's makin' it big but me 

Neil Diamond sings for diamonds 

And here's ole rhinestone me 

Oh everybody's makin' it big but me 

Well I hear that Alice Cooper's got a foxy chick 

To wipe off his snake, and keep him rich 

And Elton John's got two fine ladies 

And Doctor John's got three 

And I'm still seein' them same old sleezoes, that I used to see 

Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me 

Yeah everybody's makin' it big but me 

I've got charisma 

And personality 

Oh how come everybody's makin' it big but me? 

(What's wrong with that?) 

(I don't see nothing wrong with it Ray) 

Well I paint my face with glitter 

Just like Bowie does 

And I wear the same mascara 

That Mick Jagger does 

And I even put some lipstick on 

But that just hurt my dad and mom 

And everybody's makin' it big but me 

Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me 

Yeah everybody's makin' it big but me 

They got groupies for their bands 

And all I got is my right hand 

And everybody's makin' it big but me 

Everybody's makin' it, makin' it, makin' it 

Everybody's makin' it big
