I'Ll Live Forever!

Thinkin’ back I wonder how my life had begun. Father told me, " Well it began with the rising sun." I asked my father, " When will it be done?" He said, "Boy, it’ll be done when you have no fun!" Life’s meant to be fun! Don’t think otherwise! If it’s not, your life is done! Keep the glint in your eyes! Thinkin’ back I wonder where my friends had gone They said, "To the liquor we’ve been drawn! Drinkin’ too much and passin’ out on the lawn! Not wakin’ up and headin’ home until near dawn!" Life’s meant to be fun! Don’t think otherwise! If it’s not, your life is done! Keep the glint in your eyes! Thinkin’ to myself I wonder where my family had headed My mother said, "Well your baby sister has been wedded! And gettin’ married your big brother has dreaded! But don’t worry, I love you all, you’re tightly embedded!" Life’s meant to be fun! Don’t think otherwise! If it’s not, your life is done! Keep the glint in your eyes! I’ll live forever, I swear! My death you won’t bear! Don’t worry, dear! It’s all so clear! Life’s meant to be fun! Don’t think otherwise! If it’s not, your life is done! Keep the glint in your eyes! Thinkin’ back I wonder where my final piece had been Blue eyes, red hair, prettiest thing you’ve ever seen! Loved this lass since we were just young teens! If I was a king, she would be my beautiful queen! Life’s meant to be fun! Don’t think otherwise! If it’s not, your life is done! Keep the glint in your eyes! I’ll live forever, I swear! My death you won’t bear! Don’t worry, dear! It’s all so clear!
