These Cards Rolled Me
I hit the casino, first one I found
Tied down the horse took a look around
The angels on the door say come inside
Them big pearly gates were open wide
Blackjack left
Poker right
Thought my luck was gonna stay all night
Took up and hold me
Didn't hit or fold me
But then those cards got out and rolled me
These cards rolled me
They bought and sold me
Lady Luck controlled me
Them cards they rolled me
The diamonds took my watch the clubs hit my wall
The spades dug my grave in the dirty soil
The hearts took my belt and said you're a sight
C'mon loser honey we'll make you feel alright
Satin dress
Satin sheets
And under just the same
They took and hold me
Got me beat and sore yeah
And then those cats got up and rolled me
Those cats rolled me
I bought they sold me
Lady Night controlled me
Them cats they rolled me
What a night - ain't no dream
She's the cat, I got the cream
The chips went down, I paid the dues
She got the night and left me with the blues
Staggered out my room, down the hall
Could barely walk crawled most on the floor
The angels on the door say get ye gone
But get another buck and you'll be welcome
Lost it all
But I got more
I ain't lost that game
I'll get the dollar
And the cats a collar
I'll be up and I'll bet I'll roll ya
These cards rolled ya
They bought and sold ya
Lady Luck controlled ya
Those cards they rolled ya
Tied down the horse took a look around
The angels on the door say come inside
Them big pearly gates were open wide
Blackjack left
Poker right
Thought my luck was gonna stay all night
Took up and hold me
Didn't hit or fold me
But then those cards got out and rolled me
These cards rolled me
They bought and sold me
Lady Luck controlled me
Them cards they rolled me
The diamonds took my watch the clubs hit my wall
The spades dug my grave in the dirty soil
The hearts took my belt and said you're a sight
C'mon loser honey we'll make you feel alright
Satin dress
Satin sheets
And under just the same
They took and hold me
Got me beat and sore yeah
And then those cats got up and rolled me
Those cats rolled me
I bought they sold me
Lady Night controlled me
Them cats they rolled me
What a night - ain't no dream
She's the cat, I got the cream
The chips went down, I paid the dues
She got the night and left me with the blues
Staggered out my room, down the hall
Could barely walk crawled most on the floor
The angels on the door say get ye gone
But get another buck and you'll be welcome
Lost it all
But I got more
I ain't lost that game
I'll get the dollar
And the cats a collar
I'll be up and I'll bet I'll roll ya
These cards rolled ya
They bought and sold ya
Lady Luck controlled ya
Those cards they rolled ya
