Lyrics

I got five cards, not one is an Ace
 You're gonna trump me, baby, I can see it on your face
 You might have better cards, but darling
 You're givin' yourself away
 A couple kids in the back shootin' dice
 You can't count on nothin' but luck and I
 I never had enough to count
 So I'm gonna sit playin' poker 'til my money runs out
 You can call me lucky
 But you never seen the way I took to get here
 Look at me losin' again
 Now, Big Jim does run this town
 He owns this place and a couple around
 I never crossed him yet, but you know
 Once I came awful close
 It was Friday at the table and I drank a few
 Bet my Twenty and man, did I lose
 I came up short on Jim at the bar
 Someone spotted me the money but the payback was hard
 You can call me lucky
 But you never seen the way I took to get here
 Look at me losin' again
 You came lookin' for somethin' that you prob'ly didn't find
 Spent your money had a pretty good time
 Called your shots and rolled the dice
 But I bet you don't want to do me right
 You can call me lucky
 But you never seen the way I took to get here
 Look at me losin' again
 The boys are all hot on Rose at the bar
 She starts fixin' 'em drinks about seven o'clock
 Some of 'em come just to sit and watch
 She turns and smiles and pours their shots
 She's got big holes in the front of her jeans
 Her shirt's so tight you can see when she breathes
 They say she never kisses a man once she pours him a drink
 That's why they talk to me
 You can call me lucky
 But you never seen the way I took to get here
 Look at me losin' again
 I'm losin' again
 I don't know why I bet
 'Cause I'm losin' again
