Gambling Man

Gambling man, cards are down
Find me every deal in town
Gambling man
Make a living making them think
I'm some rich guy worse for drink
Gambling man

I play my hands, train my eyes
Frown, I smirk, I feign surprise
Gambling man
Lose a little, let 'em in
Drop their guard, think they'll win
Gambling man
I fool them up and wage them high
Strike like an eagle from the clouds
Get out fast without a pause
That's how it mostly was
Gambling man

How I game don't suppose
Jackpots fewer deceit exposed
Gambling man
Travelled far till accents changed
Differеnt rules but money the samе
Gambling man
Gambling man until I die
Just keep living for that buzz
Some days poor, most days rich
Someday a roadside ditch for this
Gambling man
Some days poor, most days rich
Someday a roadside ditch for this
Gambling man

A yellow moon sits over Havana
Why has it taken you so long?
I bet that someone has thought that
And put it in, and put it in a song

Gambling man, cards are down
Find me every deal in town
Gambling man
Make a living making them think
I'm some rich guy worse for drink
Gambling man
I fool them up and wage them high
Strike like an eagle from the clouds
Some days poor, most days rich
Someday a roadside ditch for this
