Right from early days from the moment I was born

I would take my guitar in the early early mornin

And go down to the fields and play-ay-ay



Sittin down there in the long grass strummin

I could see the people from miles around comin

To hear me sing my music and play-ay-ay



Well thats been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)

Well thats been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)

Well thats been my kinda life yeah and I wouldnt spend it anywhere

Other than sittin down somewhere playin away my days



Well we made it to the city just me and my guitar

That was where I found a freaky little bar

I sat there on the stage and play-ay-ayed

Well up came a guy who said it wasnt plastic

He wanted me to sing away my life or something drastic

But all I wanna do is play-ay-ay



Well thats been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)

Well thats been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)

Well thats been my kinda life yeah and I wouldnt spend it anywhere

Other than sittin down somewhere playin away my days



Well fame and fortune Ive let them pass me by

No one in the country could say I didnt try

To turn the people and to play-ay-ay

You can keep all the money and the places that go with it

Cos all I want is freedom and no cash could ever get it

All I wanna do is play-ay-ay



Well thats been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)

Well thats been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and I like it)

Well thats been my kinda life yeah and I wouldnt spend it anywhere

Other than sittin down somewhere playin away my days
