I'd walk those streets I'd walk those streets alone And though it was a long way A long way from home I didn't know many faces Some they look like stone Some hungry jackals Ragged to the bone I'd go on believing It was only a state of mind Then my love would appear She would shatter my bitter mind The only game in town You are the only game I would look forward To the times I love the best Now I treat each moment As if it was my last You can't lock your love away Or hide your heart like a fool You've got to always be afraid Of letting the pistons cool The only game in town You are the only game The only game in town You are the only game I wrote you a letter Now I've come around I hope you feel better Didn't mean to bring you down Because there is no hidden treasure There is no pot of gold There is no rags to riches Only the rugged soul The only game in town You are the only game The only game in town You are the only game. The only game in town The only game in town
