I took my girl to go bowling downtown at the Red Door

After an argument I started because 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

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 the day when I'd be too old to throw a ball this heavy

But I guess I'm young now so it's easy to knock 'em all down

Then I looked and saw her say to him You're really hittin' that ball around

And he's looking 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 that game

But I went and did it anyway

I dropped my red bowling ball through the glass of the machine

And said Are you quick enough to hit this ball Mr Clean

I was scared to lose her so I couldn't help being 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 bowling alley and I threw it all away

Well isn't it all just a big game
