[Chorus] I'm gonna live, laugh, love, just for today Gonna take all the trouble that Tomorrow might bring and put it away Gonna drink every drop of happiness 'Til they cover me up I'm gonna live, gonna laugh, gonna love I got a buddy that wakes up Worryin' about stocks and bonds He's up and he's down and he only smiles When the market's strong I spend my whole week's wages At the dance on Saturday night I won't never grow a portfolio But hey that's alright [Chorus] I got a cabin in the country And the tin roof rattles When the rain comes down Where the wind through the pine Helps me unwind While the world goes 'round I got a woman that fills my heart so full That it overflows And how it gets any better than this Brother I don't know [Chorus] I'm gonna live, laugh, love, just for today Gonna take all the trouble and put it away Gonna drink every drop of happiness 'Til they cover me up I'm gonna live, gonna laugh, gonna love [Chorus] I'm gonna live, gonna laugh, gonna love
