Faron Young performs "It's a Great Life (If You Don't Weaken)"

Faron Young (February 25, 1932 – December 10, 1996) was an American country music singer and songwriter from the early 1950s into the mid-1980s and one of its most successful and colorful stars. Hits including "If You Ain't Lovin' (You Ain't Livin')" and "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young" marked him as a honky-tonk singer in sound and personal style; and his chart-topping singles "Hello Walls" and "It's Four in the Morning" showed his versatility as a vocalist. Known as the Hillbilly Heartthrob, and following a movie role, the Young Sheriff, Young's singles reliably charted for more than 30 years. He committed suicide in 1996. Young is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Faron Young - It's a Great Life (If You Don't Weaken) lyrics

 

Well it's a great life if you don't weaken but who wants to be strong

 

Well I don't guess I'll ever make a million I just want enough to get by

Like a checking account in two or three banks and a yellow Cadillac to drive

To go sportin' around with two or three red-heads; might even take a blonde along

It's a great life if you don't weaken but who wants to be strong

 

Just give me my money and cold hard pension; keep my guitar in tune

And get me a date with a pretty little thing and I'll be barking at the moon

I don't want no more than anybody else; just takes more for me to get along

It's a great life if you don't weaken but who wants to be strong

 

It's a simple thing in life that really matter and I'm a pretty simple guy

Just give me a house with a swimming pool and a little sport plane to fly

It don't take much to satisfy me I'm just a country boy tryin' to get along

It's a great life if you don't weaken but who wants to be strong
