Mighty Regis - 21 Patty Finn lyrics

rate me

On the road to Vegas gonna try me Irish luck

Left L.A. behind me set to bet a couple bucks

Hit the town of bright lights maybe get some sinnin' in

Hope the wins come easy like they do for Patty Finn

(Chorus)

So bet the doggies and ponies play yer cards and roll them dice

They say the boys a sure thing go bet the bastard twice

Take my U.S. dollars and deal this fella in

I'll be rollin' in the green stuff like our man Patty Finn

Fifty on a slot machiine two hundred playin' craps

The sun is settin' on my dreams and someone's playing T.A.P.S.

Got busted up at poker and I'm bleeding like a wound

Took my chances with Lady Luck and got me wee arse tuned

(Chorus)

Who's the patron saint of gamblin'?

Who's a-watchin' over me?

Who's got a dime I can borrow?

Who's my savior gonna be?

Why can't I find a clock in here?

Why won't they ever let me win?

Why didn't me mother name me

Good ol' Patty Finn?

I shoulda left an hour ago, gotta get right out this place

I thought I had that joker beat but he flopped that second ace

I got one more chance dear blackjack can't watch I'm fuckin' done

Patty must be in the room I just hit twenty-one

(Chorus)
