I took my girl to go bowling Downtown at the red door After an argument I started 'Cause I thought she didn't like me anymore I can't help it sometimes I feel pitiful And of course she's so young and beautiful I bought us two glasses of coke That's her favorite And I wanted to make up for earlier But I dropped her glass and it broke So I just gave my glass to her She laughed and so did I in our lane And then she went to the vending machine To buy a candy cane But right next to that was a boy I knew With a spring in his hand Playing a country pinball machine Called "Stand By Your Man" I saw him talk to her But I stayed in my lane And played my game steady And was thinking of a day When I'd be too old to throw a ball this heavy But I guess I'm young now So it's easier to knock 'em all down Then I looked and saw her say to him "You're really hittin' that ball around" And so he's lookin' at her the way I did When I first met her I could see in his face White flowers And cups of coffee And love letters I was sorry to interrupt their game But I went and did it anyway I dropped my red bowling ball Through the glass of his machine I said "Are you quick enough to hit This ball, Mr. Clean?" I was scared to lose her So I couldn't help bein' mean And that ended both of our games I said I was sorry But my girl left with him just the same I thought how much I hate When love makes me act this way I was bent over a broken pinball machine In a blowling alley and I threw it all away Well it's it all just a big game?
