Sometimes
I slip across town
And meet my poker playing friend
But it seems I'm not very lucky
Cause I'm always down when it ends
I've been known to bet the spread
On a crazy old football card
But it's about the same
Seems my team comes up shoulder yard
But girl I love, that's one game
I'll never gamble on,
I know better than to wager
On something I'll need from thy arms
When I feel the urge to bet with love
I'll always bet with you
Girl, our love, that's one game
I just can't afford to lose
Well, I've never been to
Vegas
But it sounds like my kind of town
Roulette wheels, blackjack deals
And rollin' some dice around
Guess I'm just a natural born
Greenback gamblin' man
My daddy's blood was five -carched dirt
I hope you understand
But girl I know
That's one game
I'll never gamble on
I know better than to wager
On something I'll need from thou
When I feel the urge to bet with love
I always bet with you
Girl, out of love, that's one game
I just can't afford to lose
