lyrics

GAMBLING MAN

The stakes are high
In a losing streak
The risk is critical
A dangerous move

Expensive habits
Become addictive
You end up losing
Everything you own
Now who’s is the joker
In the pack
And who is the clown

Then why
Place your money knowing
Win or loose
The odds are stacked

Roll the dice
Place your bets
If you’re a gambling man
Maybe this will be your lucky hand
Or hit you really where it hurts

Red or black
Play the tables
Wheel of chance
The odds are stacked
Luck runs out
It’s the way it goes
Now who is the joker

Then why
Place your money knowing
Win or loose
The odds are stacked

Roll the dice
Place your bets
If you’re a gambling man
Maybe this will be your lucky hand
Or hit you really where it hurts

The ace of hearts
It's just the way
The dealer deals the cards
Lady Luck will surely take a shine
Or hit you right between the eyes

He knows
The stakes are high
When living dangerous
Take the hit and just accept
The loss
Luck deserts you

Roll the dice
Place your bets
If you’re a gambling man
Lady Luck will surely take a shine
Or hit you right between the eyes
