imogene she lives in Reno
all alone with thirteen cats
every night she passes the casino
imogene donâ??t fool with that
imogene she drives an old Camaro
but she hardly ever takes it out
if itâ??s true Godâ??s eye is on the sparrow
sheâ??s got nothin to worry about
chorus: she says thatâ??s life - thatâ??s my life
well i get what i need and i want what i want
and the bills roll in and the money donâ??t
and i do what i do and i fake the rest
and somehow it all works out for the best
thatâ??s life - thatâ??s my life
imogene she donâ??t take chances
the girlâ??s got a level head
evaluate the circumstances
thatâ??s what her daddy always said
then one night she passes the casino
puts a quarter in the slot machine
drops down - comes up cherries
way to go now, imogene
chorus
former high school football hero
knocks on her door like the sweepstakes man
she says iâ??m a former high school zero
now you want to be my friend?
youâ??re as dumb as a day old puppy
you ainâ??t as pretty as you used to be
hereâ??s a quarter baby, go get lucky
put one in the slots for me - yeah
chorus: thatâ??s life - thatâ??s your life
well you get what you need and you want what you want
and the girls roll in but the right one donâ??t
and you do what you do and you fake the rest
and somehow it all works out for the best
thatâ??s life - thatâ??s your life
