Q65

The Life I live

Sitting in my chair I'm thinking
Thinking of the crowd I'm in with
Thinking of the music I make
And all the things I don't wanna give
Well, I take everything I want
The girls are fighting for me
But everytime that I take one
They're indisposed, poor old me!

Well, this is my life of sadness
This is the life I live
This is my life of gladness
This is the life I live

Last week I went to the graveyard
My dog was killed by car
Feel the pain, the pain has started
He's dead, but friends we still are
Sunday we played in a dancing
The public was very down
But it didn't bore us a thing
'Cause we smoked ourselves a kick

Well, this is my life of sadness
This is the life I live
This is my life of gladness
This is the life I live

I had a girl and I loved her
She knows, she knows I still do
But she married with a rich man
But the things she wants, he can't do
Once we were on Joops wedding
We smoked and drunk all night
At twelve we were thrown out
'Cause the house was changed into a crowd

Well, this is my life of sadness
This is the life I live
This is my life of gladness
This is the life I live
