I`m gonna live it up so you can live it down I`m tired of being laughed like like a clown
Well see who`s giving who the run around I`m gonna live it up so you can live it down
Well they say that every dog`s a gonna have his day
Well now the time has come for this ol` hound to play
You`ll find me where the lights`re bright and gay
And while the sun shines I`ll be a makin` hay
I`m gonna live it up...
[ steel - guitar ]
Well you`ve had me by the nose now long enough
But now I`m a gonna change and call you bluff
Stand back and gimme room to strap my stuff
And don`t get in the way for the things might get rough
I`m gonna live it up...
I`m gonna live it up so you can live it down
