|
Well, I play for keeps, baby |
|
Said I play for keeps now |
|
And once we get together |
|
It's got to last forever |
|
Now I won't let you love me |
|
Turn around and snub me |
|
Then shove me to the side |
|
'Cause I've become accustomed |
|
To having your sweet loving, baby |
|
I won't be denied |
|
And just as long as the flowers grow |
|
Raindrops fall and the four winds blow |
|
You've got to keep loving me and don't let go |
|
'Cause, well, I play for keeps, baby |
|
Said I play for keeps now |
|
And once we get together |
|
It's got to last forever now |
|
You can have the soul of me |
|
You got complete control of me |
|
But you can love me just for a little while |
|
You leave me cryin', cryin' like a baby child |
|
But I don't want no one night man |
|
To take me out on no one night stand |
|
You've got to be a rest of my life man |
|
'Cause I play for keeps, baby, yes I do |
|
I play for keeps now |
|
And once we get together |
|
Oh, it's got to last forever |
|
If I can't have the soul of you |
|
Then I don't want no part of you |
|
'Cause if you can't love me forever and a day |
|
Then you might as well go away |
|
'Cause, well, I play for keeps, baby, yes I do |
|
I play for keeps now |
|
Said I don't want no one night man |
|
Said I can't stand the one night stand, no, no |
|
'Cause I play for keeps, baby |
