CharlottesvilleCheraw to Charlottesville In my old red jeep I stare at the headlights While you fall asleep I'm a long way from happy And a long way from home Though we ride together We travel alone The people who love me Got left behind My mother, my sister Back in Caroline I'm out on this highway Feeling battered and bruised Yet I keep on trying To hold on to you Chorus: Why do I play this game When I don't know the rules Why do I play this game When I know that I'll lose Charlottesville Charlottesville to Cheraw We're headed back home A thousand cars on this road Still I feel alone Cause you're afraid of forever And scared of the words That you hear so often But I've never heard Chorus: Why do I play this game When I don't know the rules Why do I play this game When I know that I'll lose Charlottesville Bridge: I'm not playing this game I'm through playing the fool For you Chorus: Why do I play this game When I don't know the rules Why do I play this game When I know that I'll lose Charlottesville Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
