Robert Palmer - Tennis Lyrics

Robert Palmer Lyrics

"Tennis"

Lover's advantage - nobody's fault

Umpire it's a tie-breaker
Please don't try to overrule it
If you give me the advantage I can make her
Return all my favours

Lover's advantage - nobody's fault
Man drivin' at the open
There's a hole in the rocket and a wreckage in
My package I'm swapping
She's wishing I'm hoping
Lover's advantage - nobody's fault
Make it official - ball's in your court

I served her four aces now it's deuce
And match and I think I really put it through her paces
Quiet please, spectators

Lover's advantage - nobody's fault
Make it official - ball's in your court

Umpire it's a tie-breaker
Please don't try to overrule it
If you give me the advantage I can make her
Return all my favours

Lover's advantage - nobody's fault
Make it official - ball's in your court
Lover's advantage - nobody's fault
Make it official - ball's in your court
Lover's advantage - nobody's fault
Make it official - ball's in your court
