Hey mister, gimme back them dice
You're holding all the green but you're gonna lose a slice
Rock and roll bless my soul, my wallet's gettin' thinner
Sevens up, thank you Lord, now you're looking at a winner
Cos I'm a member of a gamblin' breed
And when the action's hot, it gets me all I need
So if you find me in your town, won't you lay your money down?
It's satisfaction guaranteed
You get heaven, you'll get hell
There ain't no way for you to tell with a gamblin' man
Hey mama, give me one more ace
I'm looking at a knave and he's laughing in my face
Raise the pot bet the lot, we could all be dead tomorrow
I got an edge on the ledge, not another man will follow
Cos I'm a member of a gamblin' breed
And when the action's hot, it gets me all I need
So if you find me in your town, won't you lay your money down?
It's satisfaction guaranteed
You get heaven, you'll get hell
There ain't no way for you to tell with a gamblin' man
I said I'm a gambler, there's no question of that
But I never gamble on a woman and that's a matter of fact
Just ain't no predictin' which way their love will roll
One moment they're red hot, the next they're icy cold
Oh Lord have mercy, give the wheel a spin
It's takin' candy from a baby in the mood I'm in
Rock and roll bless my soul, my wallet's lookin' healthy
Easy come easy go, I never wanted to be wealthy
Just a paid up member of a gamblin' breed
And when the action's hot, it gets me all I need
So if you find me in your town, won't you lay your money down?
It's satisfaction guaranteed
You get heaven, you'll get hell
There ain't no way for you to tell with a gamblin' man
Lay your money down
