Cliff Richard - My Kinda Life Lyrics

Released: February 25, 1977

Songwriter: Chris East

Producer: Bruce Welch

Right from early days from the moment I was born
I would take my guitar in the early early mornin'
And go down to the fields and play

Sittin' down there in the long grass strummin'
I could see the people from miles around comin'
To hear me sing my music and play

Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it

Well that's been my kinda life yeah
And I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere
Playin' away my days, yeah

Well we made it to the city just me and my guitar
That was where I found a freaky little bar
I sat there on the stage and play
Well up came a guy who said it wasn't plastic
He wanted me to sing away my life or something drastic
But all I wanna do is play

Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it

Well that's been my kinda life yeah
And I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere
Playin' away my days, just playin'
Play it

Well fame and fortune I've let them pass me by
No one in the country could say I didn't try
To turn the people and to play
You can keep all the money and the places that go with it
'Cause all I want is freedom and no cash could ever get it
All I wanna do is play

Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it
Well that's been my kinda life
My kinda life, yes and I like it

That's been my kinda life yeah
And I wouldn't spend it anywhere
Other than sittin' down somewhere
Playin' away my days, yeah
My kinda life, yeah
My kinda life, yeah
My kinda life, yeah
