Play by the Rules Lyrics by The Good Dudes

Ready For It

2019

Oh, My baby doesn’t hang me to dry
She ain’t perfect but she’s just my type
I bring her flowers when something don’t seem right
We may argue but we find the time to compromise
Who says love's unfair, you gotta Play by the Rules
Who says love's unfair, you gotta Play by the Rules
Well My baby keeps her hand in mine
Takes a sip of her water then one of my wine
Oh She don’t think I can do what I want
But I steal a kiss from her lips to prove my point
Who says love's unfair, you gotta Play by the Rules
Who says love's unfair, you gotta Play by the Rules
I let her know every day, she’s worth more than then every penny I make
You see this game of love is a tricky thing, but you just got to learn
Oh you got to learn to give and take
Who says love's unfair, baby you gotta Play by the Rules
No who says love's unfair… (you're out)
Play by the Rules baby
Gotta Play by the Rules, C’mon guitar!
