The Lovin' Of The Game

(专辑： Ray Wylie Hubbard & The Cowboy Twinkies - 1975)

I saw the feather river glide over shining golden sand
Struck a silver ribbon wide, I held a million in my hand
But except the looking for, finding is always tame
Nothing drives a gambler like the loving of the game

Most my life I ran around searching hard from town to town
But I'd never ever found anything to tie me down
Still I wouldn't trade my time for a solid diamond claim
Wouldn't trade a fortune for the loving of the game

So long darling don't you cry, I hope that things pan out for you
'Cause all those good times going by I've got to have myself a few
Where I'm going has no end, what I'm seeking has no name
Pleasure's not the taking, it's the loving of the game
No, the pleasure's not the taking, it's the loving of the game
