I wanna feel that warm sunshine,
Livin' and lovin' in my own sweet time,
Sippin' on a lemonade here in the shade,
Showin' the world that I've got it made.

Livin' The Life the way life should be,
Only the best is good enough for me,
Findin' the man I wish I could be,
Livin' The Life 'stead of life livin' me.

I wanna buy you diamonds and pearls,
I wanna show you you're my kind of girl,
But if you've got visions of gold in those eyes,
Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies.

Livin' The Life the way life should be,
Only the best is good enough for me,
Findin' the man I wish I could be,
Livin' The Life 'stead of life livin' me.

Sometimes I've stumbled on life's rocky road,
Never has a stranger helped carry my load,
And the right I claim to be free on my own,
Gives me the privilage of bein' so alone.

Livin' The Life the way life should be,
Only the best is good enough for me,
Findin' the man I wish I could be,
Livin' The Life 'stead of life livin' me.
