What I Live to Do is the first album by the American country music artist James Bonamy. Released in February 1996, it includes the single "I Don't Think I Will", a number 2 hit on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts, and "She's Got a Mind of Her Own" and "All I Do Is Love Her". The first single, "Dog on a Toolbox", was withdrawn by the label and replaced with "She's Got a Mind of Her Own".

Critical reception

Dan Kuchar of Country Standard Time gave a mixed review. He thought that Bonamy's singing voice had "power and flair", but criticized the songwriting of most songs other than "I Don't Think I Will" and "The Devil Goes Fishin'".[1]
