Hand Springs
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
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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
