The Exciting Life

I've had a taste of the exciting life
And I can't settle down anymore
I can't live as I did just before
I had a taste of the exciting life
I've had my fling at the exciting life
And I find I respond to its thrills
I like all of the tiniest chills
That go with living the exciting life
And strange as it may be
For a girl like me
All my dreams and ideals are gone
Although I have been blind
To a life of this kind
It's the way I must live from now on
I've had my taste of the exciting life
And I'm ready again for the fall
Whom it's with doesn't matter at all
As long as I can live
The inviting, exciting life
