Letras: Jerry Jeff Walker. Lovin' Of The Game.

Pat Garvey

I watched the feather river glide
Over shininA' golden sand
Struck a silver ribbon wide
Held a million in my hand
But beside the lookinA' for
The finders always take
And thereA's nothinA' drives a gambler
Like the lovinA' of the game

All my life IA've searched around
TravellinA' hard from town to town
But I never really found
Anything to tie me down
Still I would not trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
No, I would not trade my fortune
For the lovinA' of the game


So long darling, donA't you cry
I hope that things turn out for you
All these good times gone bye
Got to get ourselves a few
Still I would not trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
Oh the treasureA's not for takinA'
ItA's the lovinA' of the game
Oh the treasureA's not for takinA'
ItA's the lovinA' of the game
The lovinA' of the game
