Big ’Ol Game

[Intro]
Mm

[Verse 1]
Summertime (Uh)
And Wendy, I ain't seen for a while
Since she's been workin', tryin' to catch her own style
With that, I got her back
My kettle's always boilin', snow's a-fallin'
Mm, and it's truly freezy
Danny ain't been callin', he's got a family
But outside my door, still says "Welcome" on the floor (Uh uh)

[Chorus]
Life is just a big ol' game to me
I'd like to be number one on your team
Call me "baby" (Baby)
Make me your baby girl 'cause (Baby, baby, uh, baby)
One day, someone will snatch me for their lady, yeah (Uh huh uh, yeah)

[Verse 2]
The buds in their blooms now
But no letters come from Lucy
She's deep in a book tryin' to bring down the crooks
But she's on my mind profusely, my sister Lucy
The birds and the bees, yeah
Mm, they do their thing in trees
While we're hustlin', bustlin', playing the game of life
We're lookin' in a dark cloud for the answers to the question "why"

[Chorus]
Life is just a big ol' game to me
I'd like to be number one on your team
Call me "baby" (Baby)
Make me your baby girl (Baby, baby, baby)
Maybe one day, someone will snatch me for their lady(Uh uh uh, yeah)
Watch me now
I could never be your number two, yeah
'Cause when you're not there, I'm sure someone's loving you
And I can't have it, uh (Have it)
I won't have it, no (I won't have it)
'Cause one day, someone will snatch me for their lady, uh, uh (Uh huh uh, yeah)

[Bridge]
You know, sometimes, I
See, I find myself confused, oh
It's always "Why this?" and, uh, uh, uh, "Why that?"
Mm, uh, see, have you ever heard the saying
"It's just a game"? Well
Then one more why (Uh huh uh, yeah)
Why can't I stop playin'?

[Chorus]
Life is just a big ol' game to me
I'd like to be number one on your team
Call me "baby" (Baby)
Baby (Baby, baby)
Ooh (Uh huh uh, yeah)
'Cause, 'cause I could never
I could never be your number two, yeah
'Cause when I'm not there, I'm sure someone's loving you (Someone's loving you)
And I can't have it have it (And I can't have it, no, no, have it)
I won't have it (And I won't have it, no, no, I won't have it)
Uh, huh, uh, uh (Oh, oh, no)
Uh, huh, uh, yeah (Oh, woah, woah woah)
Life is just a big ol' game to me (It's a big ol' game, yeah, yeah)
I'd like to be number one on your team (Uh, the one on your team)
Call me "baby" (Baby, yeah)
Baby (Baby)
Baby (Uh huh uh, uh huh uh, huh uh)
Uh huh uh, yeah (Uh huh uh, uh)

[Outro]
I could never be your, your number two
'Cause someone else will come and start loving you
Mm, and I can't have it, I told you I won't have it, no
Oh, life is just a big ol' game to me
Mm, mhm
Mm
