it just be a ring boy
i see you be lookin at my ring boy
see i be gettin the ring a while ago
and it does look rite nice and all
but gettin it was reel hard you know
gettin this ring took a lot of time
and i guess that time started long ago
it started when you first be piken up the stick
and sayin this is just the thing i love to do
now when you be sayin them words
and you be feelin the lacrosse inside you
there aint goin be a hole lot you can do
cus when you play the game it is you
and so it was to me and i played the game
and every day i rememberen practicin
i be practicin when aint no one there to play
i be practicin when i aint even got a ball
i was just a kid then but i was playin the game
i be playin every chance i got
i be playin the big kids and little kids
i be playin with my dog and cat
i be playin a wake or playin a sleep
i just all ways be playin the game
now i be lookin at you boy
and i see you lookin at this ring
and i just be wunderin if you reely want this ring
do you reely want to be playin and practicin that much
and for eight more years i played the game
i be runnin in the snow and ice
and practicin day and nite
and it dont be matterin if i be hurt
and it dont be matterin if i be sick
i gotta be there no x-cuse
i all ways just gotta be there
if you trip and fall you get up
cus the best be reedy to take your place
he all ways standin there watin for you to slip
so you all ways got to get up and be the best
there aint ever gonna be no rest
there aint ever gonna be no pain to great
there aint ever time to take a break
now boy i aint sayin i got regrets
cuse i be all ways be wherin this ring
but what other paths i could have traveled
what other folks i could have known
the game took all i had
and i gave the game all i got
now boy i just be lookin at you
and i just be wunderin if you reely want this ring
if you reely want to be given all you got
and leavin behind all those other things
i just be a wunderin boy if you reely want this ring
and what price you be willin to pay
and how great is your love for this game you play
now boy it just be a ring |
