Lyrics Live It Up - Johnny Mathis, Nelson Riddle & His Orchestra

Live It Up

It’s all around town
Here’s ten cents for mistakes he’s made
It’s all word of mouth
Oh but they say that’s the price you pay
When you’re in with the wrong crowd
Oh look at the mess you’ve made
Starring you down, every time you show your face
Ah to hell with all the small town small talk I’ve had enough
It ain’t their place to judge
Man I’m giving up
And I said if you can’t live it down
Might as well live it up
You live and you learn man
The worlds going to turn, ain’t going to stop you
And I said if you can’t live it down
Might as well live it up
Yeah forgiveness is yours in the hands of the Lord
Ain’t nothing they can do
Hell live it up
She’s made up her mind
This mistakes going to have a name
She’s in for the nine
Awe but she just turned 18
It’s a matter of time
Before she hits these streets
You say it ain’t right
Aw but she don’t wear no ring
Ah to hell with all the small town small talk I’ve had enough
It ain’t their place to judge
Man I’m giving up
And I said if you can’t live it down
Might as well live it up
You live and you learn man
The worlds going to turn, ain’t going to stop you
And I said if you can’t live it down
Might as well live it up
Yeah forgiveness is yours in the hands of the Lord
Ain’t nothing they can do
Hell live it up
So let the sinless man, cast the first stone
And may the judgment in my life, belong to God alone
And I said if you can’t live it down
Might as well live it up
You live and you learn man
The worlds going to turn, ain’t going to stop you
And I said if you can’t live it down
Might as well live it up
Yeah forgiveness is yours in the hands of the Lord
Ain’t nothing they can do
Hell live it up
