Lindisfarne
Winning The Game
Harcourt-Jackson

So many people are gonna try to fool you
Get to thinking that your the biggest thing in town
They run around make a fuss and trying to please you
Build you up so they can bring you down

Chorus:
You've given all you've got now, you can't afford to stop now
You've everything to lose, when you're winning the game
They messing you around, they trying and do you down
They push you to the ground, now you're winning the game

They take your to place where the people are gonna know you
Ask you questions you've answered time and time before
They wanna feel what it's like to be in your shoes
To sail the sea but never have to leave the shore

Chorus:
You've given all you've got now, you can't afford to stop now
You've everything to lose, when you're winning the game
They messing you around, they trying and do you down
They push you to the ground, now you're winning the game

When you're winning the game, they remember your name
They don't raise to a smile, when you talk out of style
Can't you see it's true, there's just me and you
Stand to lose when you're winning the game
Chorus:
You've given all you've got now, you can't afford to stop now
You've everything to lose, when you're winning the game
They messing you around, they trying and do you down
They push you to the ground, now you're winning the game

Chorus:
You've given all you've got now, you can't afford to stop now
You've everything to lose, when you're winning the game
They messing you around, they trying and do you down
They push you to the ground, now you're winning the game
