Oh, the games people now
Every night and every day now
Never meanin' what they say now
Never sayin' what they mean, oh no.
Well, they wile away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine, oh yeah.
Lotten da la da da da
Lotten da la a dee de dee
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play, oh now.
Well, we make one another cry
Break a heart then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
That the other one's to blame.
But neither one will ever give in
So we gaze at an eight by ten
Thinkin' bout the things that might have been
And it's a dirty rotten shame, yes it does.
--- Instrumental ---
People walkin' up to ya
Shouting glory hallelujah
Well, they wanna sock it to ya
In the name of the Lord.
Gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your fate
Furthermore to hell with hate
Come on and get on board.
Lotten da la da da da
Lotten da la a dee de dee
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play, oh now.
Look around and tell me what you see
What's happened to you and me
God give me the serenity
To remember who I am.
'Cause you've given up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
'Cause you don't give a do de dee.
Lotten da la da da da
Lotten da la a dee de dee
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play, oh now...
Waylon Arnold Jennings (1937-2002) was a legendary American singer and guitarist, considered one of the pioneers of the outlaw country movement. Born in Texas, Jennings began his career in the 1950s as a supporting musician for various country artists. In 1964 he achieved his first success with "Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line". Throughout the 1970s, Jennings emerged as a key figure in outlaw country, a movement that rejected the conventions of the Nashville Sound and embraced a more rock-and-roll and independent style. He collaborated with artists like Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash, forming the supergroup known as "The Highwaymen". His most important albums include "Honky Tonk Heroes", "Lonesome, On'ry and Mean" and "Wanted! The Outlaws". Among his most representative songs are "Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys", "Luckenbach, Texas (Back to the Basics of Love)" and "Good Hearted Woman".
