The Lovin' of the Game
I watched the feather river glide
Over shinin' golden sand
Struck the silver ribbon wide
Held a million in my hand
But besides I'm lookin' for
The finding's always tame
And nothin' drives a gambler
Like the lovin' of the game
All my life I've searched around
Travelin' 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, would not trade a fortune
For the lovin' of the game
So long darlin', don't you cry
I hope that things turn out for you
All these good times going by
Got to get ourselves a few
Where I'm going has no end
What I'm seeking has no name
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
Oh, the treasure's not for takin'
It's the lovin' of the game
Over shinin' golden sand
Struck the silver ribbon wide
Held a million in my hand
But besides I'm lookin' for
The finding's always tame
And nothin' drives a gambler
Like the lovin' of the game
All my life I've searched around
Travelin' 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, would not trade a fortune
For the lovin' of the game
So long darlin', don't you cry
I hope that things turn out for you
All these good times going by
Got to get ourselves a few
Where I'm going has no end
What I'm seeking has no name
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
Oh, the treasure's not for takin'
It's the lovin' of the game
