heart of hearts and king of kings
shuffled out and cut
like winnings
honey, you're my best shot
the stakes are high
but the payout's not
a penny for your slot cause you thought it was safe
you've been saving up for a rainy day
but then you gambled on the rain
tequila is sweet but the truth sustains
you've been banking on having a lucky day
border crossing and don't make noise
but keep your quarters out
for the boys in blue
heavy heart and no excuse
making a life
but selling one too
a penny for your slot cause you thought it was safe
you've been saving up for a rainy day
but then you gambled on the rain
tequila is sweet but the truth sustains
you've been banking on having a lucky day
heart of hearts and king of kings
shuffled out
shuffled out and cut
like winnings
