lyrics

It’s really all the same although the times have changed
just another game that we have to play
I like to entertain
I wanna feel the pain
I wanna know how it’s gonna be
when you decide that you’re bored and you’re done with me
Now more than ever before
you find me belly-up to the bar
How about I take you to the show
How about I open the door just to let you know
Someday you’re going to tell me what you like doing
So I can take your breath away again

If I was the son of Steve Garvey
Maybe you’d see things my way
Or at least see me again
My father would come home and tell me
“son go about be a Garvey”
He would tell me I could win
not that I never should begin

The only way he ever played
was with all out desire, it’s insane
He’s on the television and I’m at home
I’m watching dad run the bases but I’m alone
He’s going to first, he’s rounding third
My old man sure could play
He’s coming home in fifteen days
