It's about time you listen to someone
You've had it you own way, and now you're all done
Out of money, livin' in your car
You came to the city to be a superstar
You met all the right faces in the right places
But in the game, you didn't have aces
When it came time to play your hand
You had no clout, now you're out, and you understand
You're in too deep
You're losin' sleep
When you play with your life
You play to keep
Do-do-do, oh-oh...
Do-do-do, yeah
You should be grateful that He found you
Just when the world was comin' down around you
He knows all of your so-called friends
Hangin' all out in a Mercedes Benz
Singing life is money and money is life
This was the cause of all your strife
You can't turn your back on a true friend
But you did and now you're down, and now you're at the end
You're in too deep
You're losin' sleep
When you play with your life
You play to keep
Do-do-do, oh-oh...
Do-do-do, yeah
Where you gonna go from here
Where you gonna go from here
1, 2, 3, 4!
It's about time!
It's about time!
When you're in too deep
You're losin' sleep
(Losin' all of your sleep)
When you play with your life
You play to keep
Oh, oh, please remember
When you're in too deep
(You're in too deep, my friend)
You're losin' sleep
(Oh, you're losin' all of your sleep)
When you play with your life
You play to keep...
