VERSE 1:
Loving can be simple
(Find a guy, settle down)
Can it be so simple
(Touch the sky, look around)
There is so much out there
(Wait your turn, stand in line)
There's a someone somewhere
(You will learn, you will find)
There is so much waiting for you
Listen here is all you must do
CHORUS A:
Play the field
You gotta look around
Lovin is so real
Don't just settle down
Just play the field
And leave what is behind
Don't just make a deal
See what you can find
VERSE 2:
If you want some loving
(You'll be loved, many times)
Pushing comes to shoving
(And enough chance to find)
Come on stop your crying
(Over one special boy)
Do a little lying
(Have some fun, don't be coy)
Don't waste your life on a dream
Take it to the opposite extreme
CHORUS A
Come on have some fun
Don't waste your life on a dream
Take it to the opposite extreme
CHORUS A
See what you can find
CHORUS B:
Just play the field
And let yourself go wild
Lovin is so real
You're acting like a child
So play the field
You're always on the run
Don't just make a deal
Come on have some fun
BRIDGE:
Play the field
On the run (on the run)
Make a deal
Have some fun
CHORUS A
See what you can find
CHORUS B
CHORUS A

CHORUS B
Play the field
Play the field
Play the field
