High, wide and handsome,
That's how i like a-livin',
High, wide and handsome,
That's how life should be,
Low skinny and ugly that's for other people,
High, wide and handsome suits me to a tee.

Song, wine and women - they're my three favourites,
Beer, gin and whisky - that's 5,6 and 4,
Saturday night i like eating and dancing,
Then i sleep all day sunday,
So's i'm ready for more.

High, wide and handsome,
You can't take it with you,
High, wide and handsome,
That's one way to go,
Let's live it up - might as well, we're all dying,
High, wide and handsome,
Let's put on a show.

Can't quit what will kill me,
So why even bother?
I love this hard living, so why even try?
I'll be high, wide and handsome when i kick the bucket,
I'll be high, wide and handsome on the day i die.

High, wide and handsome,
You can call it my motto,
High, wide and handsome,
Call it my creed,
Money's just paper,
Liquor's thicker than water,
High, wide and handsome,
My thought word indeed.

Have high, wide and handsome carved on my headstone,
With the date i was born plus the date that i died,
Take one from the other,
All that's left is a number,
Just remember i laughed twice as hard as i cried.

High, wide and handsome,
That's how i like a-living,
High, wide and handsome,
That's how life should be,
Low, skinny and ugly that's for other people,
High, wide and handsome suits me to a tee.
