Gambler's Blues

Golden Earring

The table's smokin'
I got money to burn
Get ready to spin that wheel again
I came to gamble - 
Not to dance tonight

So cut the cards and deal'em nice
All or nothing, roll the dice
Son of a gun - 
There's something  going on

Yeah,today's my lucky day
Lady luck,please come my way
I got money to burn-
Money to burn
Tonight

And as the dealer - calls the play
I feel the shiver - comin' over me
Feel it in my fingertips all right 

Cards sliding faster and slicker
Than a hooker's lips in the neon light

I do what I do - I'm a gambling man
I gamble on life
And I gamble on love
Gamble on luck from above
Anyway I can

Seven card stud - with a full house hand
I'm a jackpot maniac, my friend
Tequila shots - one more chance
For the blackjack gambling man

The devil bets - he bets on hell
And seven come eleven right
Holdin' eights and aces tight
The gambler bet on heaven
Tonight

The devil bets - he bets on hell
Going in for the kill
Holdin' eights and aces tight
It's the gambler's bet tonight
On heaven
Tonight
