Game I Can’t Win

I'm gonna rob that Mesa Verde bank Think I'll take it just as fast as I can That old-time feeling just up and walked away Left me with these interest rates Them boys in Nashville, they don't mess around Better watch 'em when your deal goes down Gotta play along, let 'em lead you by the hand And they love it when you don't understand You didn't hear it from me They can't stand to see you free Your check ain't never coming in I've always loved a game I can't win Baby, I love you more than you can know I hate it when my pride don't let it show God only knows why that woman's got my back She makes up for all that I lack You didn't hear it from me They don't like it when you're free Your check ain't ever coming in I've always loved a game I can't win I put my money on the table This game I'm playing for keeps As long as I'm still young and able I wear them sevens on my sleeve You didn't hear it from me They can't stand to see you free Your check ain't never coming in I've always loved a game I can't win I always love a game I can't win Yes, I always love a game I can't win
