PLAY DIRTY

Don’t want to - play dirty 

But that’s the only way they play - when they play 

If I don’t - play dirty 

They’ll play dirty anyway. 

 

Now, once you -- play dirty 

Dirty’s how you’re gonna stay - so they say 

Don’t like to -play dirty 

But I can play the way you play. 

 

You play it cool - Then I’ll be cool 

You make it hot - I’ll play it hot 

You try to play me for a fool 

You’re gonna find out what I’ve got --better not! 

 

Don’t want to -play dirty 

But that’s the way to play this game-so you claim 

The way you -play dirty 

Gives the game a dirty name. 

 

Go on and play dirty 

if that’s the way you want to play - but you’ll pay 

‘Cause I can play so dirty 

You’re gonna wish you never played 

 

Don’t want to - play dirty 

But that’s the only way they play - when they play 

If I don’t - play dirty 

They play dirty anyway. 

 

Go on and play dirty 

if that’s the way you want to play - but you’ll pay 

‘Cause I can play so dirty 

You’re gonna wish you never played

 

Sometimes you've got to play dirty....
