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
