(Roy Drusky)

Seems I'm always right behind never first in line
A winner maybe I'm not meant to be
Number one would be just fine but I guess I'm not that kind
Second fiddle seems to be the role for me.

Second fiddle never has the spotlight
Second fiddle never makes the news
Second fiddle never plays a love song
Second fiddle only plays the blues.

--- Instrumental ---

Though I'm in love with you another loves you too
And in my heart I know how it will be
He'll wind up with you I'll be number two
Second fiddle seems to be the role for me.

Second fiddle never has the spotlight
Second fiddle never makes the news
Second fiddle never plays a love song
Second fiddle only plays the blues...
