1 - Play on, play on, play on, play on

Play on, play on, and on, and on

Boy what you do to me 

I can't conceive

All I know is that I love you 

But I've got to leave



Boy what did I ever do

To make you do the things you do

Drop the 4-1-1 for me

Here I am, boy

Come and talk to me



I need to know what's going on

With this love affair

Sick and tired of playin' games, boy

You're playin' with my heart

What we had was so together

Now you've torn it all apart, so



Repeat 1



2 - So play on, play on, play on, play on

Play on, play on, and on, and on

I thought that you were mine

Gave you all my time

Boy you played me for a fool

Now there's one thing left to do 

So play on



Boy, you should have told me

That you had somebody else across town

Oh boy, instead I heard it from a friend of mine

How could I be so blind



You took my love for granted

It's not the way I planned it

Oh boy, no explainations

Don't wanna hear no more lies

Or some phoney alibis, just



Repeat 1



Repeat 2



Every night I wait for your love

To come around, boy

I want you so bad

Every day and night

What's the use of crying

I'm tired of trying



Repeat 2



Repeat 1
