LYRICS:
MY KINDA LIFE
(East)

Right from early days, from the moment I was born
I would take my guitar in the early, early morn
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 
 
That’s been my kinda life, my kinda life, yes and I like it
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
 
Well, we made it to the city, just me and my guitar
That was where I found a freaky little bar
And  I sat there on the stage and played
Well, up came a guy, who said it wasn’t plastic
He wanted me to sign away my life or someting drastic
But all I wanna do is play 
 
That’s been my kinda life, my kinda life, yes and I like it
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 playing
 
Well, though 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 on 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 
 
That’s been my kinda life, my kinda life, yes and I like it
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
 
My kinda life, yeah, my kinda life
My kinda life, yeah, my kinda life
My kinda life, yeah, my kinda life, yeah, my kinda life, yeah
My kinda life, yeah, my kinda life, yeah, my kinda life, yeah…..
