You say you haven't taken your eyes off me
I say I'm busy on mine
You say you noticed that there's no one here with me
I say that's how I'm leaving tonight

I don't play with the players
Do yourself a favor
Go on and quit while you're ahead
So take your compliments and all your pleasantries
And keep them to yourself instead

I know how hard you've been tryin'
But I don't want your heart or your diamonds
They say: Vegas on Friday
You're calling it love
I'm calling your bluff
I see the hand you're holding so before you ever start
I don't need no joker knocking over my house of cards

You say that you know we would be a perfect par
I say what you are here for
It's not that you're not cute
It's just that I don't care
I am only bein' alone
Oh

I know how hard you've been tryin'
But I don't want your heart or your diamonds
They say: Vegas on Friday
You're calling it love
I'm calling your bluff
I see the hand you're holding so before you ever start
I don't need no joker knocking over my house of cards

I don't play with the players
Do yourself a favor
Go on and quit while you're ahead
So take your compliments and all your pleasantries
And keep them to yourself instead

I know how hard you've been tryin'
But I don't want your heart or your diamonds
They say: Vegas on Friday
You're calling it love
I'm calling your bluff
I see the hand you're holding so before you ever start
I don't need no joker knocking over my house of cards

My house of cards
