THE GAME

YOU'VE SEEN HIM BEFORE SITTING IN SOME BAR
TALKING BACK TO JESUS AND POINTING OUT THE SCARS
KNOCKING ON WOOD EVERY TIME HE MENTIONS HER NAME
HE'LL BUY YOU A DRINK FOR A PAT ON THE BACK
AND SMILE SO THE SIDES OF HIS EYES SEEM TO CRACK
SAYING "I DIDN'T LOSE I JUST LOST THE LOVE FOR THE GAME"


SO POUR UP A ROUND AND LET'S DRINK A TOAST
TO A GOOD OL BOY WHO'S GIVEN UP THE GHOST
EVERYTHING SHE MEANT TO ME IS GONE WITH THE GIN
AIN'T LIFE SWEET WHEN THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TOO LOSE
I WIN EITHER WAY ON THIS OL BAR STOOL
WITH AN OUNCE OF PRIDE TO KILL THE PAIN
WHO NEEDS THE GAME


THE STORIES HE TELLS ARE ALL FULL OF LIES
BUT THE ONE ABOUT HER BRINGS A TEAR TO MY EYE
WE SHARE COMMON GROUND LIVING WITH LOVE LOST IN VAIN
IF YOU SEE HIM TONIGHT AND HE'S TALKING LOUD
JUST LET HIM GO ON YOU KNOW HE LOVES A CROWD
IT'S EAISER SAID THAN DONE WHEN IT COMES TO THE GAME


SO POUR UP A ROUND AND LET'S DRINK A TOAST
TO A GOOD OL BOY WHO'S GIVEN UP THE GHOST
EVERYTHING SHE MEANT TO ME IS GONE WITH THE GIN
AIN'T LIFE SWEET WHEN THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE
I WIN EITHER WAY ON THIS OL BAR STOOL
WITH AN OUNCE OF PRIDE TO KILL THE PAIN
WHO NEEDS THE GAME
