    I'm trying to think of a "catch me if you can," phrase to answer and I'm drawing a blank.  How about,
     It's an acquired "taste" for the "game."  Some like it "tough" and some like it "smooth." 

    I'm not sure if that worked; but, I gave it a try.

    Because, as Frankie Laine has sung, "My heart knows what the wild goose knows, And I must go where the wild goose goes"

    My heart knows what the wild goose knows
    And I must go where the wild goose goes
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best?
    A wandering fool or a heart at rest?
    Tonight I heard the wild goose cry
    Hanging north in the lonely sky
    Tried to sleep, it wasn't no use
    Cause I am a brother to the old wild goose
    Wild goose, brother goose, which is best?
    A wandering fool or a heart at rest?
    Woman was kind and true to me
    She thinks she loves me, more fool she!
    She's got a love that ain't no use
    To love a brother of the old wild goose
    The cabin is warm and the snow is deep
    And I got a woman who lies asleep
    She'll wake up tomorrow's dawn
    And find, poor critter, that her man is gone
    Let me fly, let me fly, let me fly away
    Spring is coming and the ice will break
    And I can't linger for a woman's sake
    She'll see a shadow pass overhead
    And she'll find a feather 'side her bed

    Originally recorded in 1950.  It was one of the records my parents had when I got a record player around 1960.
