I see you watching me like a hawk
And 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 is nothing but a thrill
I live the life I love and I love the life I live

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

They 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'm 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
