Games People Play - Hank Williams, Jr.

Games People Play Lyrics

Oh, the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they meanSo they while away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till there covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousineTalkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people playOh, we make one another cry
Break our heart then we say goodbye
'Cause our heart say we hope to die
Let the other one to blameNeither one will ever give in
So were gazing at an 8 by 10
Thinking bout the way
It might have been
Its a dirty, rotten, shameTalkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people playPeople walking up to ya
Sayin' glory, hallelujah
And they try to sock it to ya

In the name of the LordThey gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your faith
And furthermore to hell with hate
Come on and get on boardTalkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people playLook around tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To remember who I am'Cause your giving up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
And you don't give a damnTalkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people playTalkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people playTalkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
...
