Betting

The Gambler

In one hand of cards
I lost the lot
'till all I had left
were the bones in this box.

No skin, no life,
no wallet, no wife,
my soul's the last I can sell.

So cut the deck death,
I'm ready to play,
a Royal Flush
and I'm on my way
.
I'll bet my way out of this hole.
It's my soul for my life,
so send me to hell if I lose.

But I win!

Hey barman
get me a gin!

I hear they have gambling now
- so easy -
you can walk into Woolworths and play.
