Im Going to Live the Life I Sing About in My Song
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song
I'm gonna stand for right and always shun the wrong
If I'm in the crowd, if I'm alone
On the streets or in my home
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song, yes, yeah

Every day, every where
On a busy thoroughfare
Some may watch me
Some may spot me
Say I'm foolish but I don't care
'Cause I can't sing one thing then live another
Be a saint by day and a devil undercover
I've got to live the life I sing about in my song

If at day, if at night
I must always walk in the light
Some mistake me
Underrate me
Because I, I wanna do it right
Well, I can't march on the streets
And shout all day Sunday
Oh crawl on my knees for the man on a Monday
I've got to live the life I sing about, yes, in my song
Oh yes, in my song
I've got to live the life I sing about in my song, yes, in my song
I'm gonna stand for justice
And always shout the wrong, ooh
I can't sing one thing then live another
Be a slave by day, ooh a devil undercover
I've got to live, I've got to live the life I sing about in my song
Ooh, in my song, yeah, in my song, ooh in my song, song
