Hey I wonder: Where is that policy right man [at] now
I done lose all my money shooting craps: And I can't win
No money nohow
I'm going to put my last dime: On the twenty thirty and
The little old ten
Because they tell me that's my baby's initial: And it
Ought bring my money back home again
I'm going to play them straight across: Man you know
[I'm playing, I got] them straight down
Now policy man my number's done come out: Bring me
Twenty‑seven dollars on around
I'm going to put a four bit piece: Back on the twenty
Thirty and the little old ten
And if them numbers come out man: It'll bring my money
Back right again
Policy man if my numbers come out: Don't fool around on
The street
Just cut across on st lawrence avenue: And bring my
Money on home to me
