Hand Springs歌词

I took my girl to go bowling
Downtown at the Red Door
After an argument I started
'Cause I thought she didn't like me anymore
I can't help it
Sometimes I feel pitiful
And of course
She's so young and beautiful
I bought us two glasses of Coke
That's her favorite
And I wanted to make up for earlier
But I dropped her glass and it broke
So I just gave my glass to her
She laughed and so did I
In our lane
Then she went to the vending machine
To buy a candy cane
But right next to that was a boy
I knew with a spring in his hand
Playing a country pinball machine
Called 'Stand by your man'
I saw him talk to her
But I stayed in my lane
And played my game steady
Was thinking of a day
When I'd be too old
To throw a ball this heavy
But I guess I'm young now
So it's easier to knock 'em all down
Then I looked and saw her say to him
"You really hitting that ball around"
And he's looking at her the way I did
When I first met her
I can see in his face, white flowers
And cups of coffee and love letters
I was sorry to interrupt their game
But I went and did it anyway
I dropped my red bowling ball
Through the glass of his machine
And I said, "Are you quick enough
To hit this ball Mr. Clean?"
I was scared to lose her
So I couldn't help being mean
And that ended both of our games
I said I was sorry
But my girl left with him
Just the same
I thought how much I hate
When love makes me act this way
I was bent over a broken pinball machine
In a bowling alley and I threw it all away
Well, isn't it all just a big game
