lyrics
2
all is fair in love and war
(Tim Nichols, Robert Byrne)
Now the first is that there ain't no rules
Some you win and some you lose
Just when you think that love is true
Somebody makes a fool out of you
Like it or not one thing for sure
All is fair in love and war.
You and me, we make love all night
Then we end up in a knock down, drag out fight
We kick and cuss and scream and shout
Until we forget what we're fightin' about
Kiss, makeup and make love some more
'Cause all is fair in love and war.
Well, anything goes when it come to love
Someone's going down when push comes to shove
It's a fight to the finish with no holds barred
If someone winds up with a broken heart
That's tough, that's real tough.
Now baby you know I sure would grieve
If you were to ever leave me
I guess I'd have to find me someone new
Someone who's a little bit prettier than you
Just to even up the score
'Cause all is fair in love and war.
Well, anything goes when it come to love
Someone's going down when push comes to shove
It's a fight to the finish with no holds barred
If someone winds up with a broken heart
That's tough, that's real tough.
Now baby you know I sure would grieve
If you were to ever leave me
I guess I'd have to find me someone new
Someone who's a little bit prettier than you
Just to even up the score
'Cause all is fair in love and war.
