Lyrics

Back In the Game

When I was just a rookie,
I had fire in my veins,
A do-or-die commitment
To win by any means.
And now I’m back in the game,
You know I only play to win.
Older now, but wiser,
Baby you can let the games begin.

I had a reputation,
Destined for the hall of fame,
Until I met that woman,
And it all went down in flames.
But now I’m back in the game,
You know I only play to win.
Older now but wiser,
Baby you can let the games begin.

So I went to see a veteran,
To ask for his advice,
He showed me all his scars and said
Boy, treat your woman right!
Now I’m back in the game,
You know I only play to win.
Older now, but wiser,
Baby you can let the games begin.

I don’t know how it happened,
It all started with a kiss,
The next thing I remember
I was on the disabled list.
But now I’m back in the game,
And you know I only play to win.
Older now but wiser,
Baby you can let the games begin.
