I've never had the fancy things in life
But I know it's more important
This man I've built my life around
He's good and kind and true
And I'd rather die lovin' him
Than to live a -wantin' to
He's got love to keep me warm
And he gives me the lovin'
He's everything I ever wanted
My life's been good, it's true
And I'd rather die lovin' him
Than to live a -wantin' to
We never dreamed of riches,
just each other we agreed
They're all the wealth we needed
To think I'd ever leave him
is a thought I never knew
Cause I'd rather die lovin' him
than to live a -wantin' to
He's got love to keep me warm,
And he gives me the lovin'
He's everything I ever wanted
My life's been good, it's true
And I'd rather die lovin' him
Than to live a -wantin' to you
