It's a Great Life (If You Don't Weaken) Songtext
von Faron Young

Well, it′s a great life if you don't weaken
But who wants to be strong?

Well, I don′t guess I'll ever make a million
I just want enough to get by
Like a checking the town in two or three banks
And a yellow Cadillac to drive.

To go sportin' around with two or three red-heads
Or maybe take a blonde along
It′s a great life if you don′t weaken
But who wants to be strong?


Just give me my money and cold hard pension
Give my guitar in tune
And get me a date with a pretty little thing
And I'll be markin′ afternoon.

No want more than anybody else
Just takes more for me to get along
It's a great life if you don′t weaken
But who wants to be strong?

It's a simple thing in life that really matter
And I′m a pretty simple guy
Just give me a house, a swimming pool
And a little sport plane to fly.

It don't take much to satisfy me
I'm a country boy tryin′ to get along
It′s a great life if you don't weaken
But who wants to be strong?...
