(hicks / horton jennings)<br>Out last night in my sunday stripes<br>(you didn't want to know me)<br>At the tuesday hop if I wear drainpipes<br>(you say you're gonna throw me)<br>The way you treat me's frightening<br>Strike me down like lightning<br>You know it's a shame (you didn't want to know)<br>It's a game (you say you're gonna throw me)<br><br>Out of town there's a story round<br>(you're staying with another)<br>At the picture show so the rumour goes<br>(you've been playing with my brother)<br>I don't know where I'm standing<br>You give me such a bumpy landing<br>It's a shame (you're staying with another)<br>It's a game (you've been playing with my brother)<br><br>Getting a bad reaction<br>Chasin' my girls best friend<br>Wonder should I walk on home<br>Plan a break-up or shake hands and make up again<br>It's a shame, it's a game (it's a a shame it's a game)<br>Wah ooh<br>It's a shame, it's a game<br>Wah ooh<br><br>I was out tonight looking wild in white<br>(you didn't want to know me)<br>Tried to catch a hint on how to jive<br>(you didn't want to show me)<br>I haven't got a dogs chance<br>If I don't know how to hip-dance<br>It's a shame (you didn't want to know me)<br>It's a game (you didn't want to show me)<br><br>Wah ooh<br>I really felt hip wearing my stripes, baby it's a shame<br>(it's a shame, it's a game)<br>And I really thought my drainpipes were outta sight yeah, it's a shame<br>(it's a shame, it's a game)<br>Well, you struck me down like lightning, baby, I didn't know what to do, ha<br>(it's a shame, it's a game)<br>There's so many rumors about me and about you I don't know what to do<br>It's a shame I don't know what to do, baby I need ya<br>(it's a shame, it's a game)<br>Oh, c'mon and teach me how to hip jive<br>(it's a shame, it's a game)
