Gambling Man

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I met you once, I loved you twice

Thats the way this tale begins

I played my hand, I rolled the dice

Now I'm paying for my sins

I got some bad addiction baby its you yeah yeah that's right

And I feel you taking over me

Could luck be a lady in here tonight

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I'd lose it all

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I'd lose it all

(Baby I'd lose it all)

Baby

Oh could you be the queen of hearts

Or the devil in disguise

With every move

I'm blinded by those diamonds in her eyes

I got some bad addiction baby its you yeah yeah that's right

And I feel you taking over me

Could luck be a lady in here tonight

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I'd lose it all

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I'd lose it all

I'm raptured in your sweet lovin but it feels just like a curse

You're beneath my skin I start tremblin with this love so dangerous

Place your bets I want you place your bets

Why dont you just place your bets on me?

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I'd lose it all

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I'd lose it all
