Not a personal philosophical question just an idle Monday curiosity. Help me out  . . . 

How many soul / blues tunes contain the thoughtful lyric "I love the Life I live, I live the Life I Love" or similar lyrical permutations. Just a silly curiosity.

Willie Dixon - I love the Life I Live (also done by Willie Nelson)

Muddy Waters - I love the Life I live, I live the Life I Love

Willie Parker - I Live the Life I Love

Tony Michaels -I Love The Life I Live

Junior Walker - I'm a Roadrunner 

Jerry Williams - Run Run Roadrunner

The Magic Tones - It's Better To Love

and almost but not quite Mr Floods Party (and other versions) Compared to What

 

Now I' sure II missing some obvious ones that are escaping me. . . fill me in.

  • My personal fave is the Willie Parker.... a big UK club play (both sides) after it's UK President label release back in Nov 67.

Me. Love the life I live. Live the life I love. Inked on both sides of my neck. One of my fave tunes and just so apt for this lifestyle

I like the Tony Michaeles (Micale) song, and my life. much more than I did when I had a "real job".
