Lyrics

Playboys

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.

She said, I guess there ain't no right way

For you to say goodbye again

You been lookin' at the highway

Where your heart has always been

I could cuss you from here to Tucson

There ain't nothin' left to say, boy

She said: I thought that I could change you

But ah, but you were born a playboy

So get on the stage and play boys

Let's kick out the lights tonight get high and make noise

We might drink a little too much whiskey

We might have a little too much fun

She's already gone away boys

If we don't go home, what difference does it make, boys?

This old world would be a dull place, boys

If it was all work and no play boys

A hundred miles outside of Houston

Third name on the marquee sign

But out here, you get used to losing

Your friends, your lovers and your mind

So get on the stage and play boys

Let's kick out the lights tonight get high and make noise

Yeah, a little drink a little too much whiskey

Yeah, let's have a little too much fun

She's already gone away boys

If we don't go home, what difference does it make, boys?

This old world would be a dull place, boys

If it was all work and no play boys

Playboy!

Set em up, we'll knock em down

Wake up in another town

We don't know no other way

We ain't good at love

We ain't good at much

We just know how to play, hey, hey

I'm just a playboy

You can't blame me for the way that I was made, boy

Yeah, I might drink a little too much whiskey

And I might have a little too much fun

She's already gone away, boys

If we don't go home, what difference does it make, boys?

This whole world would be a dull place, boys

If it was all work and no play boys
