Lyrics:

You can't take
Anything away from me
That I don't want to give
You think you
Can just tell me to quit
But I won't give in

Cuz I'm
Playing for keeps
Playing for keeps
I'm playing for keeps
Playing for keeps

You feel that
I can't stand up to you
Well that's a mistake
Why can't you
Get why I'll never back down
There's too much at stake

Cuz I'm
Playing for keeps
Playing for keeps
I'm playing for keeps
Playing for keeps

Heores are not the ones
That disappear when things are darkest
Am I any less a hero
Because there's no letter on my chest

Cuz I'm
Playing for keeps
Playing for keeps
I'm playing for keeps
Playing for keeps

Playing for keeps
Playing for keeps
I'm playing for keeps
Playing for keeps

Song Notes:

Things have been pretty busy at Beatnik Turtle headquarters the last few weeks getting ready for the release of The Indie Band Survival Guide written by our very own Jason and Randy! We have new Beatnik Turtle songs in the pipeline, but in order to get everything ready for the book's release we decided to present encores of some of the best of last year's songs.

Last year, we recently created this theme for Mur Lafferty's fantastic audio novel podcast, Playing For Keeps. You can hear it at the Playing For Keeps website!

Playing For Keeps is now a printed book from Swarm Press! It releases this week and is available at Amazon!
