Lovin’ of the Game
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 there´s nothin´ drives a gambler
Like the lovin´ of the game
All my life I´ve 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, don´t 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 treasure´s not for takin´
It´s the lovin´ of the game
Oh the treasure´s not for takin´
It´s the lovin´ of the game
The lovin´ of the game
