Would anyone happen to know the lyrics to The Quiet Life? I found this song when I had Real Jukebox installed, it was listed under Folk songs. Unfortunately my computer crashed and I lost Real Jukebox, I can't seem to find this song and don't remember who sang it.

There is a Quiet Life version on a CD from Japan but it is not the same one.

It starts "A quiet life is what I want" very relaxing song.

The song I think you want is by Ray Davies. You can find the words on the lyrics page of this site.

It was released on the soundtrack album for the film Absolute Beginners

Thanks Ed, I do believe this is it although it is a little different. I would know for sure if I could hear it. Such a beautiful song.
