Playing Cards

Run, little engine, run
Run, little engine, run
Run, little engine, run
(Run, little engine, run)

Run as fast as you can
(Run as fast as you can)
Go as far as you can go
(Go as far as you can go)

And I'm sorry for the way things went
That wasn't in my plan
(That wasn't in my plan)
I just need you to understand

I tried to play my hand smart
And hold tight to my queen
(To my queen)
But you decided to fold
When you lost faith in your king

I thought I played my cards smart
When I held on to my heart
But I was never that good when it came to playing cards
(Came to playing cards)

So your girl said

Run, little engine, run
Run, little engine, run
Run, little engine, run
(Run, little engine, run)

Run as fast as you can
(Run as fast as you can)
Run as far as you can go
(Run as far as you can go)

And I'm sorry for the way things went
(Sorry for the way things went)
That wasn't in my plan
(That wasn't in my plan)
But I just need you to understand

I tried to play my hand smart
And hold tight to my queen
But you decided to fold
When you lost faith in your king

I thought I played my cards smart
When I held on to my heart
But I was never that good when it came to playing cards
