Trooper - Gambler lyrics

rate me

All the young adolescents with their phony ID

And the best dressed out looking for someplace to be

Are all listening to the gambler

Who's too far gone to feel any pain

He says next to drinking, gambling is his only vice

Then it takes him half an hour to roll the dice

He says he's a gambler

But he's barely got the cards for a game

Then the gambler lays his money down

And the gambler slowly turns around

And says I may be a loser but I play the game

And this money says that no one here can say the same

Put your cards on the table

Call the waiter for another round

It's a blank cheque, stacked deck life that he leads

He loses what he wants and wins what he needs

He says he's a gambler

But he's barely got the cards for a game
