| 1 - play on, play on, play on, play on | |
| Play on, play on, and on, and on | |
| Boy what you do to me | |
| I can't conceive | |
| All i know is that i love you | |
| But i've got to leave | |
| Boy what did i ever do | |
| To make you do the things you do | |
| Drop the 4-1-1 for me | |
| Here i am, boy | |
| Come and talk to me | |
| I need to know what's going on | |
| With this love affair | |
| Sick and tired of playin' games, boy | |
| You're playin' with my heart | |
| What we had was so together | |
| Now you've torn it all apart, so | |
| Repeat 1 | |
| 2 - so play on, play on, play on, play on | |
| Play on, play on, and on, and on | |
| I thought that you were mine | |
| Gave you all my time | |
| Boy you played me for a fool | |
| Now there's one thing left to do | |
| So play on | |
| Boy, you should have told me | |
| That you had somebody else across town | |
| Oh boy, instead i heard it from a friend of mine | |
| How could i be so blind | |
| You took my love for granted | |
| It's not the way i planned it | |
| Oh boy, no explainations | |
| Don't wanna hear no more lies | |
| Or some phoney alibis, just | |
| Repeat 1 | |
| Repeat 2 | |
| Every night i wait for your love | |
| To come around, boy | |
| I want you so bad | |
| Every day and night | |
| What's the use of crying | |
| I'm tired of trying | |
| Repeat 2 | |
| Repeat 1 |
