Game Of Love
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.
You got that certain something that really turns me on
You can make me do right or you can make me do wrong
If you really mean that I'm the best thing you've ever found
You can prove it by being true and never playing around
But just like you can cheat on me
I can cheat on you (I can cheat on you)
There's no rule that says the game of love
Can't be played by two
You can go shopping in the streets
Trying to bargain up something new
But what's out there for you men
Oh, it's out there for us women too
Like a dog that prowls around
Prowls around and licks at his bone
If the shoe don't fit the size
Oh, why keep trying it on?
Cause just like you can cheat on me
I can cheat on you (I can cheat on you)
There's no rule that says the game of love
Can't be played by two
Like the old saying of give and take
You're never too old to learn (learn)
But when you start putting your hand in the fire
You know you're gonna get burned (burned)
Let me tell you
If you do unto me as I do unto you (you)
There ain't no chance for this romance
To ever be broken in two
Cause just like you can cheat on me
I can cheat on you (I can cheat on you)
There's no rule that says the game of love
Can't be played by two
You see I've been hurt so many times
But somehow I pulled through
But the stakes of love are much too high
For me to gamble with you
You know I'm not playing hard to get
But I want you to understand
If you want a do-right woman
Oh, you got to be a do-right man
But just like you can cheat on me
I can cheat on you (I can cheat on you)
There's no rule that says the game of love
Can't be played by two
If you want a do-right woman
You got to come on in and do right
Say I'll play if you want to play
Oh, that's what it's all about
Everybody's talking about liberation
Oh, I don't believe
But I believe in a man doing right
Oh, everything a woman does new
But just like you can cheat on me
I can cheat on you (I can cheat on you)
There's no rule that says the game of love
Can't be played by two
If you want a do-right woman
You got to come on in and do right
Say I'll play if you want to play
Oh that's what it's all about
Everybody's talking about liberation
I don't believe
But I believe in a man doing right
Everything a woman does new
