PLAYIN' AROUND WITH LOVE

Not too long ago you said to me

I believe it's time you set me free

Cause I found a woman who knows how to love me right

And she don't mind if I lay out all night

And you said hallelujah this woman sure gets to ya

I fin'lly found peace of mind

Singin' hallelujah you don't know what good it'll do ya

Playin' around with love'll do it everytime

But then one day she felt like movin' on

One goodbye and you were all alone

And it's funny I could almost hear the sound

When your whole world came tumbling to the ground

And I said hallelujah that woman socked it to ya

Just walked away and blew your mind

Singin' hallelujah you got what's comin' to ya

Playin' around with love'll do it everytime

But it seems that I'm not too satisfied

With the brand new love that's walking by my side

Cause already there's an old love on my mind

Playin' around with love'll do it everytime
