A high roller even when the chips are down To win her over, I 'd see the tables turn around She 's ten the hard way, I can feel it in my bones She 'll be makin ' my day and not another night alone It 's time for a windfall and not a single minute too soon I 've been too long overdue, now I 'm gonna shoot the moon Chorus: I 'd bet it all on a good run of bad luck Seven come eleven and she could be mine Luck be a lady, and I 'm gonna find love Comin ' on the bottom line I 've been to the tables, and I 've lost it all before I 'm willin ' and able, always comin ' back for more Squeezin ' out a thin dime till there 's no one hanging on my arm I 've gambled on a third time, a fool will tell you it 's a charm If I 'm betting on a loser, I 'm gonna have a devil to pay But it 's the only game I know to play, it doesn 't matter anyway Repeat Chorus (x2)
