Lyrics
The Way I Play This Game
Stupid is as stupid does
And I’ve sure done a lot
Ask me which one was the worst
You’d put me on the spot
Maybe getting married
Though one would not be bad
But four times takes the cake in
This crazy life I’ve had
Would I do it over------------------------ Chorus
Would I change a thing
Would a leopord change its spots
Would a nightingale still sing
Damned if I know
But one thing’s sure
A lot could be the same
If I didn’t use more caution
In the way I play this game
Maybe if I was a priest
Or became a monk
I’d stay away from women
I’d never get drunk
I wouldn’t do one fifty
In a fifty five
But that would be so boring
I wouldn’t feel alive
Would I do it over------------------------ Chorus
Would I change a thing
Would a leopord change its spots
Would a nightingale still sing
Damned if I know
But one thing’s sure
A lot could be the same
If I didn’t use more caution
In the way I play this game
No one has come back to tell---------------- Bridge
If we get another try
So I’ll keep on doing
My best to make it by
Instrumental Break
Would I do it over------------------------ Chorus
Would I change a thing
Would a leopord change its spots
Would a nightingale still sing
Damned if I know
But one thing’s sure
A lot could be the same
If I didn’t use more caution
In the way I play this game
Would I do it over------------------------ Chorus
Would I change a thing
Would a leapord change its spots
Would a nightingale still sing
Well there's nothing more disheartening
If we think we know
But a spade is still a spade
And a rose is still a rose
Would I do it over------------------------ Chorus
Would I change a thing
Would a leapord change its spots
Would a nightingale still sing
Damned if I know
But one thing’s sure
A lot could be the same
If I didn’t use more caution
In the way I play this game
Yeah, yeah, baby
In the way I play this game
