Lovin' Of The Game Lyrics

Artist: Jerry Jeff Walker
Album: Cowjazz

Pat Garvey

I watched the feather river glide
Over shinin golden sand
Struck a silver ribbon wide
Held a million in my hand
But beside the lookin for
The finders always take
And theres nothin drives a gambler
Like the lovin of the game

All my life Ive searched around
Travellin 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 lovin of the game

So long darling, dont 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 treasures not for takin
Its the lovin of the game
Oh the treasures not for takin
Its the lovin of the game
The lovin of the game
