Lyrics

It all depends on the cards you play
Sometimes you lose and you have to pay
Sometimes you just have to walk away
It's just the nature of the game

If your hopes arise and then go bust
Keep your dreams and shake off the dust
Your luck will change 'cause you know it must
It's just the nature of the game

Take a gamble on the next song by the band
Walk up and smile, put your future in the palm of her hand

Country two-step or romantic slow
She might say yes or she might say no
You won't find out 'til the lights get low
It's just the nature of the game

Hey, this life's got no guarantees
Spend your money, live as you please
Sometimes this world drives you to your knees
It's just the nature of the game

Get off your seat and give it a go
Get on your feet, let the vibes flow
She could be your sweetheart, don't you know
It's just the nature of the game

Take a gamble on the next song the band will play
Place your bets and your dreams will be on their way
On their way, yeah, your dreams are on their way

Tear up the floor and catch her eye
Take your chances, don't let life go by
You won't regret it if you try
It's just the nature of the game, yeah

It's just the nature of the game
It's just the nature of the game
