I’m Going to Live the Life I Sing About In My Song

I’m Going to Live the Life I Sing About In My Song

Thomas A. Dorsey

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song
I'm gonna stand right, always showing the wrong
If I'm in a crowd, if I'm alone, on the streets or in my home
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song
I'm gonna stand right always showing the wrong
If I'm in a crowd, if I'm alone, Lord, on the street or in my home
Gonna live the life I sing about in my song

[Bridge]
Everyday, everywhere, on the busy thoroughfare
Folks may watch me, folks may spot me
Say I'm foolish but I don't care
I can't go to church, shout all day Sunday
Go out and get drunk and raise sand all day Monday
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song

[Verse 3]
Mmm, not for gold nor for fame but for the love of Jesus name
I was always up the straight street and narrow way
Jesus told me in the day He will wash all my sins away
Gonna live the life I sing about in my song

[Verse 4]
Sure enough, I'm gonna live, live the life I sing about in my song
Oh, yeah, I'm gonna stand right and always showing the wrong
If I'm in a crowd, if I'm alone, well, on the street, in my home
I'm gonna live the life I sing about, oh, in my song
