The Overtones - Gambling Man lyrics

rate me

I met you once, I loved you twice

That's the way this tale begins

I played my hand, I rolled the dice

Now I'm paying for my sins

I got some bad addiction baby

It's you yeah yeah that's right

And I feel you taking over me

Could luck be a lady in here tonight

[Chorus]

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I’d lose it all

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I’d lose it all

(Baby I’d lose it all)

Baby

Oh could you be the queen of hearts

Or the devil in disguise

With every move

I'm blinded by those diamonds in her eyes

I got some bad addiction baby

It's you yeah yeah that's right

And I feel you taking over me

Could luck be a lady in here tonight

[Chorus]

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I’d lose it all

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I’d lose it all

I'm raptured in your sweet lovin'

But it feels just like a curse

(It feels just like a curse)

You're beneath my skin I start tremblin'

With this love so dangerous

Place your bets I want you place your bets

Why don't you just place your bets on me?

[Chorus x2]

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I’d lose it all

My odds are stacked

I've never been a gambling man

I've never had the winning hand

But for you I’d lose it all

Yeah yeah yeah

But for you I would lose it all
