Everybody's gotta live,

And everybody's gonna die,

Everybody's gotta live,

I think you know the reason why.



Sometimes the going gets so good,

Then again it gets pretty rough,

But when I have you in my arms baby,

You know I just can't, I just can't get enough.



Oh, Yeah



Everybody's gotta live,

And everybody's gonna die,

Everybody's trying to have a, a good time,

I think ya, I think ya know the reason why.



Saw a bum that was sitting on the corner yesteday baby,

He couldn't hardly tie his shoes,

But he had a harmonica, and he crawled by such a long distance

He sure could, He sure could play it good.



Oh, Yeah



Everybody's gotta live,

And everybody's gonna die,

Everybody's trying to have a, a good time,

I think ya know the reason why.



I fell like i've seen just about a million sunsets,

She said "If you're with me i'll never go away",

That when I stopped and took a look at my baby,

She said "If you're with me i'll never go away".



Because



Everybody's gotta live,

And everybody's gonna die,

Everybody's gotta live,

Before you know the reason why.



I had a dream the other night, baby,

I dreamt that I was all alone,

but when I woke up I took a look around myself,

and I was surrounded by fifty million strong.



Oh, Yeah



Everybody's gotta live,

And everybody's gonna die,

Everybody's gotta live,

I think you know the reason why.



Everybody's gotta live,

And everybody's gonna die,

Everybody's gotta live, (you gotta live)

And everybody's gonna....
