This Is the Life

This life is the life that I've chosen, yeah
Nobody made me do it
Feels right, givin' all my devotion, ooh, yeah
Take it from a man who's had a taste of both sides
There's no sweeter freedom than a godly life
I just wanna testify

This is the life
I'm where I wanna be
Livin' from the center
Of a heart that's free
Whoa-whoa, I'm feelin' alright
Day or night, rain or shine
This is the life
This is the life, y'all

You think it's a dull life I'm livin'
Yeah, you say it's such a pity
So weak, to need a crutch of religion, no
Pardon me a minute, but I think I need to say
I don't need your sympathy, so don't be talkin' that way
You will see the light someday

This is the life
I'm where I wanna be
Livin' from the center
Of a heart that's free
Whoa-whoa, I'm feelin' alright
Day or night, rain or shine
This is the life

Now I'm not sayin'
That I never had a bad day
But since I've been livin'
Livin' for Jesus
Ooh-ooh, this is what I have to say

This is the life
I'm where I wanna be
Livin' from the center
Of a heart that's free
Whoa-whoa, I'm feelin' alright
Day or night, rain or shine

This is the life
I'm where I wanna be
Livin' from the center
Of a heart that's free
Whoa-whoa, I'm feelin' alright
Day or night, rain or shine
This is the life

This is the life
I'm where I wanna be
Livin' from the center
Of a heart that's free
Whoa-whoa, I'm feelin' alright
Day or night, rain or shine

Hey, this is the life
I'm where I wanna be
Livin' from the center
Of a heart that's free
Whoa-whoa, I'm feelin' alright
Day or night, rain or shine
This is the life

This is the life, y'all
This is them life, ooh-ooh-ooh...
This is the life, y'all
This is the life
Whoa-whoa....
