Jerry Jeff Walker – Lovin' Of The Game lyrics
Pat Garvey

I watched the feather river glide
Over shinin' golden sand
Struck a silver ribbon wide
Held a million in my hand
But beside the lookin' for
The finders always tame
And there's nothin' drives a gambler
Like the lovin' of the game

All my life I've searched around
Travellin' hard from town to town
But I never really found
Anything to tie me down
Still I would not trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
No, I would not trade my fortune
For the lovin' of the game

So long darling, don't you cry
I hope that things turn out for you
All these good times gone bye
Got to get ourselves a few
Still I would not trade my time
For a solid diamond claim
Oh the treasure's not for takin'
It's the lovin' of the game
Oh the treasure's not for takin'
It's the lovin' of the game
The lovin' of the game
