Steve Goodman - The Loving of the Game lyrics
[Steve Goodman - The Loving of the Game lyrics]
Over shining golden sand
Struck a silver ribbon wide
Held a million in my hand
But beside the lookin' for
Well the findin' is always tame
And there's nothing drives a gambler like
The lovin' of the game
All my life I ran around searching
Hard from town to town
But, I never ever found anything
To tie me down
Still I wouldn't trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
No, I would not trade a fortune
For the lovin' of the game
So long, darling, don't you cry
I hope that things pan out for you
All the good times going by
Got to have ourselves a few
Where I'm going has no end
What I'm seeking has no name
No, the treasure's not the takin'
It's the lovin' of the game
No, the treasure's not the takin'
It's the lovin' of the game
