Let's Live a Little - Carl Smith

Take your little lips and kiss me

Take your little arms and squeeze me

Let’s live a little before we say goodbye

I’ll draw my money out of the bank

I’ll buy you roses and pretty things

Let’s live a little before we say goodbye

You’ll wear a yellow ribbon in your wavy hair

I’ll wear the suit you like and a big bow tie

We’ll pretend we’re happy though we know it’s a lie

So let’s live a little before we say goodbye

You’ll be my queen of beauty

I’ll be proud of you, my cutie

Let’s live a little before we say goodbye

Someday our hair will turn gray

And we will think of yesterday

So let’s live a little before we say goodbye

The band will be playing a waltz just for two

And I will be saying, «Darling, I love you»

We’ll pretend we’re happy though we know it’s a lie

So let’s live a little before we say goodbye
