Country music singer and songwriter Pat James
Country singer and songwriter Pat James is humble about his talent and proud of his heritage. Born in the heart of the American West, he grew up in Phoenix, Arizona with an appreciation for the land, its people and the country western music that is an integral part of the cowboy culture. Refreshingly different from the montage of "pop" singers dominating the country music scene today, Pat James remains true to the origins of the genre. His rich vocal style and skillful guitar playing has thrilled audiences in Phoenix and beyond.

Lyrics
Let me live long enough to take back the time I've wasted Let me do the things that I was meant to do Let me fill myself on the things in life up to now I've only tasted For once to my heart let me be true Too many years I have spent behind this hammer Killing myself to send the boss' kids to school How'd I ever let myself get so used to this wage I'm earning If things don't change, then I'm the guilty fool Let me live long enough to take back the time I've wasted Let me do the things that I was meant to do Let me fill myself on the things in life up to now I've only tasted For once to my heart let me be true Too many songs I have sung for too few people I realize not everyone can be a star All I ever wanted was to make a living playing my kind of music To have it heard somewhere outside this damned ol' bar Let me live long enough to take back the time I've wasted Let me do the things that I was meant to do Let me fill myself on the things in life up to now I've only tasted For once to my heart let me be true Oh Lord for once to my heart let me be true.
