game of love

Joan Osborne

You got that certain little somethin'
that really turns me on
You can make me do right or you can make me do wrong
If you really mean I'm the best thing you ever found
You can prove it by being true and never playing around

Just like you can cheat on me, I can cheat on you
There's no rule says the game of love can't be played by two
Can't be played, can't be played, can't be played by two

You can go shopping in the street
trying to bargain up on somethin' new
But what's out there for you men is out there
for us women too
Like a dog that crawls around and he licks his bone
If the shoe don't fit the size, why keep trying it on?

Just like you can cheat on me, I can cheat on you
There's no rule says the game of love can't be played by two

Like the old saying of give and take
you're never to old to learn
But when you start putting your hand in fire
you know you gonna get burned
But if you wanna do unto me like I do unto you
There's no chance that this romance
can ever be broken in two

Just like you can cheat on me, I can cheat on you
There's no rule says the game of love
can't be played by two, come on

See I've been hurt so many times but somehow I pull through
But the stakes of love are just too high for me
to gamble with you
I'm not tryin' to play hard to get
but I want you to understand
If you want a do right woman you gotta be a do right man
Just like you can cheat on me, I can cheat on you
There's no rule says the game of love can't be played by two
Can't be played, can't be played, can't be played by two
Can't be played, can't be played, can't be played by two
Can't be played, can't be played, can't be played by two
Can't be played, can't be played, can't be played by two
