I'm living on the streets every day
Tryin to make a "Buck" any old way
Got my hands in my pockets,  there's no money to spend
That's when you know,  you got no friends
I try to hold a job to pay my rent
Am I livin in the land of the heaven sent?
I'm bein cool,  tryin to stay sane
Huh  !  Don't yah know,  that life's a game
Life's a game y'all

My relationship,  it's at a dead end
My girl,  she walk off with my best friend
I knew she was acting strange and funny
She kept goin on and on about money
In everything I do,  I try to be correct
Maybe I'm bein just too select
I'm bein cool,  tryin to stay sane
Huh  !  Don't yah know,  that life's a game
Life's a game y'all

Now listen....

The moral of this story has to be told
all that glitters,  isn't gold
When a man is down and out of luck
Stretch forth your hand and pick him up
Tables turn and this is true
you may find out,   it could be you
tryin to be cool,  tryin to stay sane
Huh  !   Don't yah know,  that life's a game
Life's a game y'all

I'm outta here  !
