GAMES YOU'VE BEEN PLAYING
(Jimmy Ellis, R. McRorie)
Well I tossed and turned all night since you've been gone.
I've cried a pool of tears wanting you to come back home.
Well all along you knew you weren't going to stay.
Tell me why, Tell me why, Tell me why you treat me this way.
Just the games you've been playing,
Just the games you've been playing,
Just the games you've been playing oh please don't play anymore.
Yeah you knew from the start you could handle me like a pup.
When you got me down you don't want to let me up.
Well I don't know how much more I can stand.
You treat me like a boy and not like a man.
With the games you've been playing,
With the games you've been playing,
With the games you've been playing oh please don't play anymore.
Well I told you all along the tide would turn.
Now it took me quite a while but now I've learned.
Yeah the song I'm singing now's a brand new tune.
The vaccination you gave me made me immune.
To the games you've been playing,
Oh the games you've been playing,
Oh the games you've been playing we ain't gonna play 'em no more.
Oh those games you've been playing,
Oh those games you've been playing,
Yes those games you've been playing we ain't gonna play 'em no more.
Yeah the games you've been playing,
Yeah the games you've been playing,
I said the games you've been playing we ain't gonna play 'em no more.
Oh the games you've been playing, Yeah the games you've been playing...
