People say, look at the money they save I don't believe that life's that way And old man once looked at me in the eye
He seemed to sign He seemed to sign, don't let life pass you by He seemed to say he wanted me to run 'Cause the old man was once a boy, and only young once 'Cause it's life for the talking Well it ain't no, ain't no mistaken Well it's life for the taking
I can remember when I was just a little kid The big boys used to beat me up just a bit But I learned young that I couldn't cry My mama wasn't gonna be by my side
'Cause it's life for the talking Well it ain't no, ain't no mistaken Well it's life for the taking
It's my life I love my life It's life for the talking
