Gamblin' With the Devil
I'm gamblin' with the devil, hopin' that I'll win
I'm so sorry to tell you, I've been livin' my life in sin
Just wanted to hit the big time, and drag y'all along
Now I'm racin' past the finish line, driving all alone
And I've never been a straight-shooter- never been a sore loser
But I'm on my way
And hey, baby don't you worry- I lost it all
But I will be okay
And oh, I hear them comin' again
The hounds of hell are comin' to drag me in
I'm gamblin' empty-handed, I've put all my money in
I'm so tired of being stranded, in this little town full of sin
But the devil's got me good, sure as the settin' sun
Fear all ye who abandon hope to do what I have done
I tried to be a straight shooter- But I'm just a user
A fraud and a fake
And hey, baby I see you're worried- There ain't much more
That you can take
And oh, I see thunder clouds rollin' in
The doomsday bell's ringing for my end
Living life in misery, sounds much too good for me
I hope they can forgive what I have done
You know I knew it'd come to pass
The cards are stacked, my soul's up for grabs
Just hold me until it's time
I know I'll never be a straight-shooter- Maybe I'm just a loser
Playing his life away
And hey, baby I know you worry- I'm in no hurry now
Cause life is just a game
An oh, I hear them ridin' with the wind
I say the lake of fire is where I'll drown my sins
I'm so sorry to tell you, I've been livin' my life in sin
Just wanted to hit the big time, and drag y'all along
Now I'm racin' past the finish line, driving all alone
And I've never been a straight-shooter- never been a sore loser
But I'm on my way
And hey, baby don't you worry- I lost it all
But I will be okay
And oh, I hear them comin' again
The hounds of hell are comin' to drag me in
I'm gamblin' empty-handed, I've put all my money in
I'm so tired of being stranded, in this little town full of sin
But the devil's got me good, sure as the settin' sun
Fear all ye who abandon hope to do what I have done
I tried to be a straight shooter- But I'm just a user
A fraud and a fake
And hey, baby I see you're worried- There ain't much more
That you can take
And oh, I see thunder clouds rollin' in
The doomsday bell's ringing for my end
Living life in misery, sounds much too good for me
I hope they can forgive what I have done
You know I knew it'd come to pass
The cards are stacked, my soul's up for grabs
Just hold me until it's time
I know I'll never be a straight-shooter- Maybe I'm just a loser
Playing his life away
And hey, baby I know you worry- I'm in no hurry now
Cause life is just a game
An oh, I hear them ridin' with the wind
I say the lake of fire is where I'll drown my sins
