Lyrics The Hustler - Chris Rea

The Hustler

Time to get up — make a move
Put the brain in gear — cut the groove
Moving slow — with a smiling face
Never look like you want it — 'til it’s right in your face
I’m the hustler — playing my favourite game
Yeah I’m the hustler — everybody knows my name
Well I can get all around you — while I think you stand still
The way you tell me you won’t — Let’s me know that you will
Last thing you tell them — is what you came here for
The’re never going to find out — 'Til you way out the door
'Cos I’m the hustler — playing my favourite game
Yeah I’m the hustler — everybody knows my name
You got to love the work you do — how long it takes
Ain’t important to you — Don’t care what’s in it
Loving every minute — every minute every hour
Every second of the day — little by little
I see it coming my way
I’m the hustler — playing my favourite game
Yeah I’m the hustler — everybody knows my name
