We had a special way of talkin'
Oh, a language all our own
We always knew the latest dances
But we liked old-fashioned love
Now something seems the matter
You don't want to play by the rules
(You don't want to play by the rules)
I don't want to love here anymore
(I don't want to love here anymore)
You don't want to play by the rules
(You don't want to play by the rules)
I don't have a lot of patience
When someone's lit my fuse
So don't you try to reason
Me, I don't want no excuse, no!
You don't want to play by the rules
(You don't want to play by the rules)
I don't want to love here anymore
(I don't want to love here anymore)
You don't want to play by the rules
(You don't want to play by the rules)
You
(You)
Don't
(Don't)
Play
(Play)
By the rules
I
(I)
Won't
(Don't)
Love here anymore
You don't want to play by the rules
(You don't want to play by the rules)
'Cause I don't want to love here anymore
(I don't want to love here anymore)
