Play it fair
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Give your heart to the one
Who gave her heart to you
If you must play the game
Play it fair (play it fair)
Save your love for the one
Who saves her love for you
If you must play with love
Play it fair (play it fair)
Oh you don't have to be wise
No you don't have to be so smart
Just to realize
It's wrong to break a heart
So be true to the one
Who's always true to you
If she's true why can't you
Play it fair (play it fair)
Yes you-ooo should bear in mind
That you just can't live alone
So why not spend your time
With someone all your own
Keep your mind on the one
Whose mind's always on you
If you must play the game
Play it fair (play it fair).
