Bloodshot
eyes
and
menthol
lights
pull
the
handle Pant suit plastic
bag socks and sandals Long in tooth losing faith never giving up One by
one drop those quarters from your
cup A rosary around her neck gray hairs she
calls silver No sleep for days and days praying it
don’t kill her Shiny coins and shaky hands make the wheel
spin Gonna hit it big break the bank play until
she wins Place your bets cash your chips won’t you
ante up and call For those who lost it all Lay your money down there’s
blood spilled
on the ground We’re gonna wash it all away Watch those tumbling dice
roll under
spacious skies Casino wash our sins away
At night the lighted signs attract Most all like moths and flies arrive
To hear the noise and see the sights the
fortune in their eyes Do we
go to place our bets do we go to pay
our debts When the plate comes round put your money
down Don’t worry about the rest Even money on the black even money on
the
red All the green will pay the cost of the men
she left for dead A torch in her right hand she’s got chains
around her feet She’s trying to win this game but the
numbers can’t be beat Place your bets cash your chips won’t you
ante up and call For those who lost it all Lay your money down there’s
blood spilled
on the ground We’re gonna wash it all away Watch those tumbling dice
roll under
spacious skies Casino wash our sins away
