Lyrics

This song was first released on the It's About Time Album. It is the only album it has been released on. I want to play in the World Game I want to make it better it's ever been before I want to play in the World Game I want to make sure everybody knows the score About using less, doing so much more Everywhere I'm going I see trouble Everywhere I'm looking I see all kinds of pain Maybe we can get back on the double Maybe we can turn around and make it all change They say it's you against your neighbor If it gets right down to it, you against your friend I swear that this is not the answer As far as I can see it is the way it all ends I want to play in the World Game I want to make it better it's ever been before I want to play in the World Game I want to make sure everybody knows the score About using less and doing so much more Hey man, you know me I don't worry Hey man, you know me I am never afraid Only one thing can make me sorry Something to say and then it never gets said What kind of man turns on his brother What kind of man turns his back on a friend Who has the right to say it's over Who has the right to see how far it can bend I want to play in the World Game I want to make it better it's ever been before I want to play in the World Game I want to make sure everybody knows the score About using less, doing so much more Yaweh yaweh yaweh jah Yaweh yaweh yaweh jah Yaweh yaweh yaweh jah Yaweh yaweh yaweh jah You and me you and me You and me you and me I and I - I and I I and I - I and I I want to play in the World Game I want to make it better it's ever been before I want to play in the World Game I want to make sure everybody knows the score About using less, doing so much more Words and music by John Denver
