Live It Live

I’ve kicked up dust a lot and thought somewhat of all the round about.
Sometimes my mind’s a whirl as thoughts they swirl, but one stands out.
Can’t be denied, this feeling inside that’s busting out.

Hey! I’m alive and love it,
Hey! I’m alive.
I’ll never quit or scrub it,
I’ll live it live.

Feelin’ the warmth of the sun from the sky, smilin’ at people as they shuffle by,
The fan’s on low and the temp’rature’s high, so I only have a penny it’ll put me by.
While time allows it I will shout it, hear me cry:

Hey! I’m alive and love it … etc.

Na na na (etc)
Don’t tell me
No, I’ll show you there’s a lot to do, I’m telling you my friend.

I’m alive and love it … etc.
