He sticks to his guns
He take the road as it comes
It take the shine off his shoes
He says its a shame
You know it may be a game
Ah but I wont play to loose
Hes burning the grass
He take up a glass
He swallow it neat
He crosses the floor
He open the door
He take a sniff of the street
And then she tell him that hes crazy
Shes a-saying hey baby
Im your wife
Yeah she tell him that hes crazy
For gambling a-with his life
But he climbs on his horse
You know he feel no remorse
He just kicks it alive
His motor is fine
He take it over the line
Until hes ready to dive
And she tell him that hes crazy
Yes shes saying listen baby
Im your wife
Yeah she tell him that hes crazy
For gambling with his life
He sticks to his guns
He take the road as it comes
It take the shine off his shoes
He say its a shame
You know it may be a game
Ah but I wont play to loose
He sticks to his guns
He take the road as it comes
It take the shine off his shoes
Hes too fast to stop
He take it over the top
He make a line in the news
