I see you watchin' me like a hawk
I don't mind the way you talk
But Lord protect me, something's got to give
I live the life I love and I love the life I live

So if you see me and you think I'm wrong
Don't worry about me, just let me alone
My sweet life ain't nothin' but a thrill
I live the life I love and I love the life I live

diamond ring and some money too
Tomorrow night they could belong to you
These girls woo me at their will
I live the life I love and I love the life I live

May bet a thousand on a bet this time
One minute later, I can't cover your dime
Tomorrow night, I might be over the hill
I just want you to know, baby, the way that I feel

Oh yeah, I rockin' when you pass me by
Don't talk about me 'cause I might be high
Please forgive me if you will
I live the life I love and I love the life I live
