Lyrics Don't Need to Win - L.A. Guns

Don't Need to Win

Give it up a little
And you’re flying safe
If the playing don’t sting
Then you’re throwing it away
Put it up a wall
Then behind the door
'Til you’re thinking some day
That you want it some more
Up then you’re down
Then you’re going strong
Banking on a race
Or the rolling bones
Hands on the table
Split and a call
Out to the place
For a win and a show
You’re going down
And you’re thinking 'bout going out, oh yeah
You got charms
And you better start using 'em now
If you wanna play the game
Hit but don’t stay
Stakes are gonna raise
Gotta know your own limit
Life on a loan
Take it all home
I don’t need to win the game
But I’m gonna be in it
Hold it back a little
For a bigger pot
Yeah, it’s raining all day
Put up all that you got
Put it out your mind
Never skip a day
'Cause you’re sitting on a slot
That’s ready to pay
In and then you’re out
Then your streak is hot
Just another hand
And you’re back on top
Come to the table
You double down
Another hand
And you’ll turn it around
You’re going down
And you’re thinking 'bout going out, oh yeah
You got charms
And you better start using 'em now
If you wanna play the game
Hit but don’t stay
Stakes are gonna raise
Gotta know your own limit
Life on a loan
Take it all home
I don’t need to win the game
But I’m gonna
Play all night
Gonna play all day
Sometimes in the flashing lights
Do you see your life passing, flashing by?
Sometimes in the flashing lights
Do you see your life passing, flashing by?
Sometimes in the flashing lights
Do you see your life passing, flashing by?
Don’t pry, 'cause I’m living life
And I’m living for the thrill and it’s high
Play the game
Hit but don’t stay
Stakes are gonna raise
Gotta know your own limit
Life on a loan
Take it all home
I don’t need to win the game
But I’m gonna be in it
You play the game
Hit but don’t stay
Stakes are gonna raise
Gotta know your own limit
Life on a loan
Take it all home
I don’t need to win the game
But I’m gonna be in it
