Текст песни Gotta Change The Rules - The Robert Cray Band

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

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
