Status Quo — Name Of The Game lyrics

Lyrics

She drank my money then she blew me out
When I was mad for her she blew me out
She’s in the club and she’s accusing me Of all the men she is accusing me Oh, I didn’t do it, I did not do it She never let me get round to it
I didn’t do it, I did not do it We never even got down to it It’s the name of the game for me It’s always the same for me It’s the name of the game for me Can Trinity set me free?
'Cause taking the blame
Is the name of the game for me They know it’s a shame
They never explain, oh taking the blame
Is the name of the game for me Somebody pour another glass of champagne
Before they come to t-t-take me away
The F.B.I. and C.I.A. they say
I shot the sheriff and I shot him today
Oh, but I didn’t do it, I did not do it They know they’re making too much of it
I didn’t do it, I did not do it
I didn’t even do the deputy in Here comes the judge outside a bottle of gin
He ain’t too happy with the way that I’ve been
They locked me down, down in a hole in the ground
And then they swallowed ev’ry key in the town
Oh, I didn’t do it, I did not do it
I think they’re making too much of it
I didn’t do it, I did not do it
I say they’re making too much of it
