If You Ain't Lovin' (You Ain't Livin')

(albüm: Buck Owens Sings Tommy Collins - 1963)

Well, if you got a Cadillac, boy
And a forty room shack, boy
A bucket full of money
And a tree full of honey.

But if you getting no hugging
No smooching or a mugging
Well, if you ain't loving
Then you ain't living.

Well, if you're riding on the gravy train
Instead of walking down lovers lane
You can't make hay, boy
You're going the wrong way, boy.

You gotta get a little honey
For it's better than money
Well, if you ain't loving
Then you ain't living.

[Instrumental]

Well, if they call you a big big man
'Cause you got a lot of bottom land
If you're kin to the president
And if you help run the government.

But if you get no attention
You better off on a pension
For if you ain't loving
Then you ain't living.

Well, if you got a string of long long cars
And you're smoking them four-bit cigars
Well, you ain't so well to do
Unless you get a little coochy coo.

It takes a little of smacking
Or your life is a lacking
Well, if you ain't loving
Then you ain't living...
