"If I Could Make a Livin' (Out of Lovin' You)" lyrics

Another cup of coffee for the road
And a kiss on the cheek
An eight-hour day in front of me
Before I'll be free
I'll have a smile on my face
Drivin' home this evenin'
When the day is through

I'd be a rich man
If I could make a livin'
Out of loving you

I'd be a rich man
If I could make a livin'
Out of lovin' you

They tell me there's a reason
For the struggle, so, I go on
They tell me if I carry my weight
It won't be long
But every workin' man knows
The future doesn't hold
Any more than what is true

I'd be a rich man
If I could make a livin'
Out of loving you

And I love to have a dollar
When a wrinkled shirt collar gets pressed
And a dime for every time
That I'll feel blessed

And throw in another hundred
For every time I wonder
Without you, what would I do

I'd be a rich man
If I could make a livin'
Out of loving you

Oh, I love to twenty
When that let's-make-love grin
Lights up your face
And a quarter for every day alone
Let you be there when I await

And throw in another hundred
For every time I wonder
Without you, what would I do

I'd be a rich man
If I could make a livin'
Out of loving you

I'd be a rich man
If I could make a livin'
Out of loving you
