I Play For Keeps Lyrics - Singles - Carla Thomas

Well, I play for keeps, baby 

Said I play for keeps now 

And once we get together 

It's got to last forever 

 

Now I won't let you love me 

Turn around and snub me 

Then shove me to the side 

'Cause I've become accustomed 

To having your sweet loving, baby 

I won't be denied 

 

And just as long as the flowers grow 

Raindrops fall and the four winds blow 

You've got to keep loving me and don't let go 

 

'Cause, well, I play for keeps, baby 

Said I play for keeps now 

And once we get together 

It's got to last forever now 

 

You can have the soul of me 

You got complete control of me 

But you can love me just for a little while 

You leave me cryin', cryin' like a baby child 

 

But I don't want no one night man 

To take me out on no one night stand 

You've got to be a rest of my life man 

 

'Cause I play for keeps, baby, yes I do 

I play for keeps now 

And once we get together 

Oh, it's got to last forever 

 

If I can't have the soul of you 

Then I don't want no part of you 

'Cause if you can't love me forever and a day 

Then you might as well go away 

 

'Cause, well, I play for keeps, baby, yes I do 

I play for keeps now 

Said I don't want no one night man 

Said I can't stand the one night stand, no, no 

 

'Cause I play for keeps, baby
