There are many schools of thought as to where this has originated from the full poem
Work like you don't need the money;
dance like no one is watching;
sing like no one is listening;
love like you've never been hurt;
and live life every day as if it were your last.
It's supposedly an old Irish Wedding toast dating back to 1700's. Others believe it was something quoted by Satchel Paige but I doubt that. Is has been Incorporated into a naff song by Guy Clarke too. Hope this helps :)

It is said to be an old Irish proverb - full version
Work like you don't need the money;
dance like no one is watching;
sing like no one is listening;
love like you've never been hurt;
and live life every day as if it were your last.
Was made into a song with words slightly altered.

It was in a song called Sunscreen a few years back by some European DJ.
Don't know about the original.
