When you're lovin' and you're livin' there's a smile upon your face
You'll sing louder and you're prouder you belong to the human race
You'll be spritely goin' nightly at the age of ninety-five
If you're lovin' then you're livin' and it's great to be alive
If you're livin' and you're lovin' life can be a lot of fun
Things behind you just can't find you makes no difference what you've done
What passion rages turn the pages and don't let old age arrive
When you're lovin' then you're livin' and it's great to be alive
[ fiddle - steel ]
When you're livin' then be given all the things that's good and true
For your favor you'll find later that it all comes back to you
You'll be singin' bells're ringin' and your blues will take a dive
When you're lovin' and you're livin' and it's great to be alive
If you're not kissin' then you're missin' all the things that's nice and sweet
I can't feature any creature with the life so incomplete
So let's look yonder hopes're fonder and don't love we can survive
When you're lovin' then you're livin' and it's great to be alive
