Livin' It Up

Livin' it up By: jimmy buffett, josh leo, j.d. souther 1983 He took one last look Tossed that address book His odyssey has begun No time to see sights Ran all the red lights Burned all his bridges Now it's love on the run Chorus: Livin' it up Is takin' all of his time But he ain't givin' it up It suits his temperament fine Up on the bandstand Plays for a few fans Workin' for minimum wage He spots her lookin' His brain is cookin' She takes her seat At the foot of the stage Chorus: Livin' it up Is takin' all of his time But he ain't givin' it up It suits his temperament fine Yeah he loves livin' it up And takin' all of his time But he ain't givin' it up It never crosses his mind Didn't say much, had a soft touch Knew what felt good in her man He was the same way and they split the next day Sang all the way through the yucatan Chorus: Livin' it up Is takin' all of our time But we ain't givin' it up It never crosses our mind No no no he's just livin' it up And takin' all of his time But he ain't givin' her up She suits his temperament fine Yeah she's just livin' it up And takin' all of his time But she ain't givin' him up It never crosses her mind - notes: Background vocals: josh leo, vince melamed, danny burns Synthesizer: vince melamed Ba*s: danny burns Drums: thom mooney and the linn drum machine
