I Want to Live and Love [Health & Happiness Show Four, October 1949] Songtext
von Hank Williams

Oh, here we are again
Friends, we got a little song here now
It got an offer
Lots of good sense, isn′t it?
Really good
Oh, I must say I'm gonna sing it for you
And I think you′ll to agree with me
This got an official good title
The title of it is "I Want To Live And Love Always"

I wanna live and love under the stars above
I wanna hold, hold you close to my heart
You gave me hopes and you, while I was sad and blue
And nothing's gonna keep us apart

I sang a lonely song until you came along
I'm headin′ for the bright sunny day
And I′m tellin' you what this love will do
I wanna live and love always


I wanna shout hooray and praise the lucky day
That you came walkin′ right into my life
I'm gonna change my plans ′cause I'm a different man
I′m through with all trouble this time

I used to feel so bad but now I feel so glad
I'm headin' for the bright sunny day
And I′m tellin′ you what this love will do
I wanna live and love always

I wanna live and love under the stars above
I wanna hold, hold you close to my heart
You gave me hopes and you, when I was sad and blue
And nothing's gonna keep us apart

I sang a lonely song until you came along
I′m headin' for the bright sunny day
And I′m tellin' you what this love will do
I wanna live and love always

Yes, and that is it, "I Want To Live And Love Always"
Here′s our friend again with a message for you
So listen to him, will you?
