Jackie Lomax: "Let The Play Begin" Lyrics

Baby, don’t let me down

Don’t tell me I’m wastin’ time by hangin’ round

Let the play begin

Give me somethin’ I can get my rhythm in

Let the play begin



Baby, don’t turn around

No, the stakes are too high out on the killing ground

Let the play begin

Let the curtain rise and let the play begin 

Let the play begin



Baby, don’t believe that I mean it

You need some lonely eyes of green

Way down in between it, now



Baby, don’t turn away

Don’t put me off until another day

Let the play begin

Give me somethin’ I can get my rhythm in

Let the play begin



Baby, don’t believe that I mean it

You need some lonely eyes of green

Way down in between it, now
