Let's Live A Little Before We Say Goodbye Lyrics - Carl Smith

Take your little lips and kiss me take your little arms and squeeze me 

Let's live a little before we say goodbye 

I'll draw my money out of the bank I'll buy you roses and pretty things 

Let's live a little before we say goodbye 

You'll wear a yellow ribbon in your wavy hair 

I'll wear the suit you like and a big bowtie 

We'll pretend we're happy though we know it's a lie 

So let's live a little before we say goodbye 

[ steel - guitar ] 

You'll be my queen of beauty I'll be proud that you're my cuty 

Let's live a little before we say goodbye 

Someday our hair will turn grey and we will think of yesterday 

Let's live a little before we say goodbye 

The band will be playing a waltz just for two I will be saying darling I love you 

We'll pretend we're happy though we know it's a lie 

So let's live a little before we say goodbye
