I'm gambling on your loving, babe,
you gave a losing hand
Yeah, I'm gambling on your loving,
babe, got nothing but a losing hand
Yeah, the way you treat me, babe,
oh, it's like the shifting desert sand
Thought I'd be your king, baby,
yeah, and you would be my queen
Baby, I thought I'd be your king,
baby, yeah, and you would be my queen
Ah, but you dealt me for your joker,
babe, um, when I thought you'd be the loser's queen
What'd you be to that, babe?
Yeah, the way you treat me, babe,
I don't believe I'll ever understand
The way you treat me babe,
I don't think I'll ever understand
Ah, the waves keep changing, baby,
just like the shifting desert sand
Gambling on your loving, baby, got a losing hand, yeah, babe
You gave me nothing but a losing hand, yeah, yeah
The way you treat me, babe, ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, I'll never understand
Yeah, yeah
