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
