The Robert Cray Band - Gotta Change The Rules lyrics

As soon as you walk out that door I won't consider you a friend no more Cause the things you say behind my back Just showed me, baby, where you're at Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If you want to love me Whenever we meet out on the street You're always real short with me And you think that I don't understand That I'm no longer, babe, part of your plans Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If you want to love me Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If they don't include me We played a game of one-on-one But the way we played it, baby, came undone You took the love then passed a lie (???) And it seems that we 'bout run out of time (??) Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If you want to love me Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If they don't include me (Guitar solo) This time, baby I'm gonna change the game I went home and I practiced I'm not the same I've been a fool that's been hurt And that's no doubt So now I'm going to have to count you out Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If you want to love me Gotta change the rules, oh, baby Gotta change the rules If they don't include me You're gonna cheat me I don't play with 'ya If you're gonna lie to me Take that mess to somebody else I can't stand it Noo, I can't take it I won't stand for it, baby, no Change the rules, mmmm
