(Rodney Crowell/Keith Urban)

I'm livin' in a world that won't stop pullin' on me

I'm not complaining but it's true

It's like I owe my time to everyone else

'Cause that's all I seem to do

You might not notice but I need a good friend

Someone to talk to when I'm down, down, down

There's so much on my mind that I want to get out

But there's no one around

Sometimes I can't help thinkin' what about me

Some days go by that I don't even see

Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free

Oh is this the way it's always gonna be

What about me

Well I'm dreamin' I'm ona highway with the windows down

I'm burnin' up the road at my own speed

But I'm stuck here goin' nowhere in this traffic jam

And there's a woman with her kids in the car next to me

And I swear she's singin'

Sometimes I can't help thinkin' what about me

Some days go by that I don't even see

Yeah I'm doing everything right and I can't break free

Is this the way it's always gonna be

Hey, what about me

Oh, sometimes I can't help thinkin' what about me

Some days go by that I don't even see

I'm doing everything right and I can't break free

Oh is this the way it's always gonna be

What about me

Ooo what about me

Hey what about me
