This E makin' a livin' is A killin' me I E work like a dog in this B hot factory Can't A even afford a B vacation when I've got the E time But I've got road maps of A Mexico E Brochures and pictures of B places to go A Dreamin' in color, B livin' in black and E white I can A drink margaritas with B sweet senoritas A work on my tropical E tan A Dangle my feet in the E crystal blue water A Lay in the snow white B sand E I've never been down to B Mexico E But I'm gonna go there A tonight I'm E dreamin' in color, B livin' in black and E white E I'd like to buy a new A Cadillac E Build me a house with a B pool out back And A eat at the country B club every Saturday E night But E there ain't much pay in my A ol' paycheck But E I'll win the lotto one day I B bet A Dreamin' in color, B livin' in black and E white REPEAT CHORUS I'm E dreamin' in color, B livin' in black and E white
