[Chorus]
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
Before you know the reason why

[Verse 1]
Sometime the goin' gets so good
Then again it gets pretty rough
But when I have you in my arms, baby
You know I just can't, I just can't get enough, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
You gotta live before you know the reason why

[Verse 2]
I saw a blind man standin' on a corner yesterday, baby
He couldn't hardly tie his shoes
But he had a harmonica and a guitar strapped around his neck
And he sure could, sure could play the blues, oh, yeah

[Chorus]
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
You gotta live before you know the reason why
[Verse 3]
I had a dream the other night, baby
I dreamt that I was all alone
But when I woke up I took a look around my self
I was surrounded by fifty million strong, oh, yeah

[Chorus]
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
You gotta live before you know the reason why, hey
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
Before you know the reason why, oh
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
You gotta live before you know the reason why, yeah
Everybody's gotta live, really?
Everybody's gonna die, whoa
Everybody's gotta have a good time, sure 'nuff
Before you know the reason why

[Outro]
Everybody's gotta live
Everybody's gonna die
Everybody's gotta live
Die
