Only Game In Town

(album: As Far As Siam - 1981)

Yeah, I'd walk those streets
I'd walk those streets alone
And though it was a long way
A long way from my home

Didn't know many faces
Some they look like stone
Some like hungry jackals
Ragged to the bone

But I'd go on believing
It was only a state of mind
And then my love would appear
She would shatter my bitter mind

Only game in town
You are the only game

I would look forward
To the times I love the best
And now I treat each moment
As if it was my last

You can't lock your love away
Or hide your heart like a fool
You've got to always be afraid
Of letting the pistons cool

Only game in town
You are the only game
The only game in town
You are the only game

I wrote you a letter
Now I've come around
I hope you feel better
Didn't mean to bring you down

'Cause there ain't no hidden treasure
There ain't no pot of gold
There ain't no rags to riches
Only the rugged soul

Only game in town
You are the only game
The only game in town
You are the only game

The only game in town
You are the only game in town
Only game in town
Only game in town
