Well there's so many things that I've never done And there's so many places that I've never gone And I'm aiming on living some before I die And so many lips that I've never kissed And there's so much in life that I have missed And I'm aiming on living some before I die Before I die I wanna build amends I wanna shake hands with the president Before I die I wanna get my share I wanna go to Hollywood and just stand and stare Well there's so many rows that I never hoed So many wild oats I never sowed And I'm aiming on living some before I die Well there's so many corners I've never turned And there's so many candles I've gotta burn And I'm aiming on living some before I die There's so many roads that I've never known And there's so many parties I've never thrown And I'm aiming on living some before I die Before I die I wanna live like a king Drive a Cadillac flash a diamond ring Before I die I wanna strut my stuff Smoke cigars at a dollar a puff Well there's a lot more lovin' that I can get So many things I ain't done yet And I'm aiming on living some Oh aiming on living some Yeah aiming on living some before I die
