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 that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and i like it)

Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and i like it)

Well that's been my kinda life yeah and i wouldn't 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 wasn't plastic

He wanted me to sing away my life or something drastic

But all i wanna do is play-ay-ay



Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and i like it)

Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and i like it)

Well that's been my kinda life yeah and i wouldn't spend it anywhere

Other than sittin' down somewhere playin' away my days



Well fame and fortune i've let them pass me by

No one in the country could say i didn't 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 that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and i like it)

Well that's been my kinda life my kinda life (yes and i like it)

Well that's been my kinda life yeah and i wouldn't spend it anywhere

Other than sittin' down somewhere playin' away my days
