Driving straight ahead kicked back in cruise control
My body's in a race but my mind's not on the goal
And the stripped down, no good blond babes are driving me wild
Red and black streamers gracing every wall
So I ask what's so graceful about losing it all?
But the hot seats, mixed drinks and six strings leave me wanting more
My credit's dipping to 105 don't matter if I make it back home dead or alive
Going rolling with my aces high
Where the girls got say guys are right
Dollars blowing, but the dimes in sight
Play my hand gonna hit the town tonight
Crowdin' every table, gonna press my luck
Their two of a kind, can't beat my royal flush
But the no good - deadbeat strangers try to break my stance.
I'm the king of kings, my mind is tough enough
But when the skies are grey, the seas are rough
And the mad men can't stand losin' hands no more
I'm toppled over with this crippling itch But I'll stand my ground as a son of a bitch
Going rolling with my aces high
Where the girls got say guys are right
Dollars blowing, but the dimes in sight
Play my hand gonna hit the town tonight
