The hills make me wanna run and play
Every time I think of you
And I wanna go up and sit right down
And look at the ocean so blue
I wanna feel the breeze blowing in my face
And let all things hang loose
Whisper your name
Feel no pain
Relax and cruise
(Chorus)
This is the life, the life I was given
This is the life
I love country living
This is the life
The life meant for me and you
So I hope you're here to live it too
(yeah) and I hope you're here to live it too
I wanna get on my bike and ride that red dirt road
From the cane fields to the shore
I wanna skip stones with my cousins
As the ahi skims the ocean floor
And as the sun goes down and the moon goes up, I can see the stars
(see the stars)
As we sit by that fire beneath our shack
And jam our guitar
This is the life, the life I was given
This is the life
I love country living
This is the life
The life meant for me and you
So I hope you're here to live it too
(yeah) and I hope you're here to live it too
Take the time to unwind
And let the island sooth your soul
Feel the music everywhere
And let aloha take control
Cause I can see the pain in your eyes
From the pressure of today
Open your eyes, we're in paradise
And throw them all away
This is the life, the life I was given
This is the life
I love country living
This is the life
The life meant for me and you
So I hope you're here to live it too
(yeah) and I hope you're here to live it too
(yeah) and I hope you're here to live it too
