you can do it without even trying

you can do it without even trying

 

The guy playing pinball

he's watching flashing lights

playing the silver ball

watching the score

he's thinking of you

and what both of you go through

each night that you pass through these doors

where so many brothers

and so many others

spend money and time hanging out

some play under cover

some look to find lovers

and some think that's all it's about

yeah, some think that's all it's about

 

This life with the gang

that starts off with a bang

where everything's new and exciting

new places to go

pretty faces to know

you can do it without even trying

you can do it without even trying

 

          The guy on the pool table

          and the guy playing pin ball

          in the world of the gang

          they're both hiding in me

          thinking of you

          wondering what you're going through

          while he's trying to get himself free

          yes, he's trying to get himself free from

 

Life with the gang

that starts off with a bang

where everything's new and so exciting

new places to go

pretty faces to know

you can do it without even trying

you can do it without even trying

 

So why are you sitting there crying?

it's just life with the gang

life

with the gang

  

 

Life With The Gang

  

The guy on the pool table

takes another shot

he's trying to win

but that's nothing new

it's all just a game

and he plays just the same

while he's looking at you across the room

 

He watches you flirting

playing your own game

he turns to the table

it's his turn now

while you're playing your own

with someone to go home with

and it looks like your turn's coming round

yes, it looks like your turn's coming round

 

 Life with the gang

it starts off with a bang

everything's new and exciting

new places to go

pretty faces to know
