Lyrics Livin' In the Life - The Isley Brothers

Somebody said
I was livin' in the life
Somebody told me
I was livin' in the life
Think that you might know
You find that you're readin' me wrong
My pictures come and go
But my livin' has got to go on
And if you think it's easy it's only 'cause
You ain't me and I ain't you
Check out the difference between the two
Somebody said
It was easy in my life
Somebody told me
I had made it in my life
Try to understand my determination when
You can't only stand
On the outside looking in
And if you think it's easy it's only 'cause
You ain't me and I ain't you
Ha
Check out the difference between the two
Somebody said
I was livin' in the life
Somebody told me
I was livin' in the life
Try to understand my determination when
You can't only stand
On the outside looking in
Oh, you ain't me and I ain't you
There's hellava difference between the two
