I was a cowboy from out of state
Thought I was a player but I got played
Dust off my shoes wipe the sweat from my face
If everyone is playing you gotta play the game
Am I a reflection I know you're mine
Oh to know my shape in another's eye
I remain collected I know you're right
I'll be a reminder another time
But you are all I got now I don't care if you're kind
The radio is playing and it's supper time
Nobody ever taught me put my chips on God's grace
My buddy is a cheater but I'm shooting straight
He's fading into water I can't make him stay
In the end a player is bound to get played
I was a cowboy from out of state
Thought I was a player but I got played
Dust off my shoes wipe the sweat from my face
If everyone is playing you gotta play the game
If everyone is playing you gotta play the game
