when you're perfect in every way.
I can't wait to look in the mirror
cause I get better loking 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 doing the best that I can.
I used to have a girlfriend
but she just couldn't compete
with all of these love starved women
who keep clamoring at my feet.
Well I prob'ly 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

I guess you could say I'm a loner,
a cowboy outlaw tough and proud.
I could have lots of friends if I want to
but then I wouldn't stand out from the 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.

I tweaked the words to “ I must be a hell of a gal” and felt that this song was tailor-made for me. Sang it to myself every time I had put my foot in my mouth or done something else silly. But it took on a different role after my diagnosis of cancer.
As a Christian I’ve heard numerous sermons and read innumerable articles encouraging Christians to find their identity in Christ. I agree with that but this song, totally egotistical, described EXACTLY what I needed after the mastectomy and during chemotherapy when I lost hair by the handful, felt lethargic, fought nausea and valiantly applied cream on skin that looked drier by the day.
I was defiant and singing this gave me a good laugh when I needed it, especially
“ I can't wait to look in the mirror cause I get better looking each day”
