I'm Still Winning
Now listen
Buddy ain't I seen you before let me tell you my story
I've had my ups and my downs the cards mostly fell for me
You could say that I've played every game in town
Never lost my nerve always doubled down
I guess I took it too far and I lost all the glory
Like a junky when he gets his fix
An old dog with some brand new tricks
Playing cards is how I get my kicks
And I'm still winning baby
I came from humble beginnings it's best not to mention
I had a talent or two and the worst of intentions
Knew how to count my cards mathematical fun
I kept no queen of hearts got my love on the run
I was the king of the crop, my stars were all in ascension
Like a junky when he gets his fix
An old dog with some brand new tricks
Playing cards is how I get my kicks
And I'm still winning baby
Like a gangster going for the kill
Others find it in a chemical pill
A lucky hand is how I get my thrills
And I'm still winning baby
Oh I've been dreaming a lot about those days
Just need one more chance
To get back on top
To see one more raise
I knew my luck would run out
That goes without saying
I thought I played every side
But who was doing the playing?
And this bar's about rock bottom for me but buddy I ain't complaining
I've got some cards
And I just ain't paying, no, no
Like a junkie when he gets his fix
An old dog with some brand new tricks
Playing cards is how I get my kicks
And I'm still winning baby
Like a gangster going for the kill
Others find it in a chemical pill
A lucky hand is how I get my thrills
And I'm still winning baby
Oh yes I am
Buddy ain't I seen you before let me tell you my story
I've had my ups and my downs the cards mostly fell for me
You could say that I've played every game in town
Never lost my nerve always doubled down
I guess I took it too far and I lost all the glory
Like a junky when he gets his fix
An old dog with some brand new tricks
Playing cards is how I get my kicks
And I'm still winning baby
I came from humble beginnings it's best not to mention
I had a talent or two and the worst of intentions
Knew how to count my cards mathematical fun
I kept no queen of hearts got my love on the run
I was the king of the crop, my stars were all in ascension
Like a junky when he gets his fix
An old dog with some brand new tricks
Playing cards is how I get my kicks
And I'm still winning baby
Like a gangster going for the kill
Others find it in a chemical pill
A lucky hand is how I get my thrills
And I'm still winning baby
Oh I've been dreaming a lot about those days
Just need one more chance
To get back on top
To see one more raise
I knew my luck would run out
That goes without saying
I thought I played every side
But who was doing the playing?
And this bar's about rock bottom for me but buddy I ain't complaining
I've got some cards
And I just ain't paying, no, no
Like a junkie when he gets his fix
An old dog with some brand new tricks
Playing cards is how I get my kicks
And I'm still winning baby
Like a gangster going for the kill
Others find it in a chemical pill
A lucky hand is how I get my thrills
And I'm still winning baby
Oh yes I am
