Well she grabbed me and asked me,
If I had a name, She told me she was interested to see, If I could play the game, She said her name was victory, She didn't want to know the rules, That's just the way I wanted to play, In a game designed for fools. Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, We were beatin' the odds again, We were gambling with our souls, We were playing to win, We were beatin' the odds again. Well I rolled the dice feelin' cold as ice, And Victory drew the cards, We knew that loosin' when the stakes were high, Could really hit us hard, I strapped into the drivers seat, With Miss Victory by my side, She knew at a glance she was takin' a chance, By coming along for the ride. Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, We were beatin' the odds again, We were gambling with our souls, We were playing to win, We were beatin' the odds again. Time and space stood still that day, With Victory's soul and mine, We were running a race between heaven and hell, And we could not find the finish line, And when it was all over we won it in the end, We were splittin' the prize when she opened her eyes, And said Baby let's try it again. Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, We were beatin' the odds again, We were gambling with our souls, We were playing to win, We were beatin' the odds again. Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, We were beatin' the odds again, We were gambling with our souls, We were playing to win, We were beatin' the odds again. |

Well some people bitch, Lord, some people holler, Each man can do just what he wants, But we've all got ot pull our load. About the long days on the road. It ain't as bad as they say. As for myself, I'm gonna take the highway, Give me wine, women, whiskey, and rock 'n roll, Chorus: And let me sleep my days away. C'mon baby, let the good times roll. C'mon baby, let the good times roll. I've been all throughout the South land. I ought to settle down some place, Keep moving on down the line. But I just can't find the time. Give me wine, whiskey, women, and rock 'n roll, It ain't as bad as they say. As for myself, gonna take this highway, And let me sleep my days away. Chorus: C'mon baby, let the good times roll. C'mon baby, let the good times roll. Chorus: Chorus: C'mon baby, let the good times roll. C'mon baby, let the good times roll. C'mon baby, let the good times roll. C'mon baby, let the good times roll.

Well, baby used to stay out all night long.
She made me cry, she done me wrong. She hurt my eyes open, that's no lie. Table's turning, now her turn to cry. Chorus: Because I used to love her but it's all over now. Because I used to love her but it's all over now. Well, she used to run around with ev'ry man in town. Spent all my money playing a high class game. She put me out, it was a pity how I cried. The table's turned and now, her turn to cry. Chorus: Because I used to love her but it's all over now. Because I used to love her but it's all over now. Well, I used to wake up in the morning, get my breakfast in bed. When I gotten worried, she could ease my aching head. But now she's here and there with ev'ry man in town. Instead of trying to take me for that same old clown. Chorus: Because I used to love her but it's all over now. Because I used to love her but it's all over now. Because I used to love her but its all over now. |

Well here comes the story baby that I want you all to know, Started off one day and took off down the road. 'Bought what brought me down, what got me feeling low, Seeking' my fame and fortune, and trying to tote the load. One man's pleasure is another man's pain. One man's loss is another man's gain. I left my woman in Jacksonville and took off down the line. She had her way of thinking and Lord knows I had mine. Chorus: Couldn't take the pain, baby, of staying all alone. She could not take the pain of me not being home. Chorus: One man's pleasure is another man's pain. One man's loss is another man's gain. Now when I left this town it was for her and for me. Now I'm home all alone, with a paper that says I'm free. I guess I'll hit the road again, and do what I do best. To hell with her, to hell with him, to hell with all the rest. One man's loss is another man's gain. Chorus: One man's pleasure is another man's pain. Chorus: One man's loss is another man's gain. One man's pleasure is another man's pain. Now tell me people, who's to blame?

I want to tell you
What happened to me A love-struck fool Too blind to see The old kiss and tell Broke her cleaver disguise I should have known better By the look in her eyes. Chorus: Dead giveaway, ain't no use in fakin' I thought it was love, I guess I was mistaken The sign on the wall said no prisoners taken It's a dead giveaway, I feel my heart is breaking. Same old story You've heard all along Love is blind, still you try to hold on Now she's gone, I'm lonely and blue If you don't watch out It'll happen to you. Chorus: Dead giveaway, ain't no use in fakin' I thought it was love, I guess I was mistaken The sign on the wall said no prisoners taken It's a dead giveaway, I feel my heart is breaking. Same old story You've heard all along Love is blind, still you try to hold on A case of mistaken identity I was blind back then But now I can see. Chorus: Dead giveaway, ain't no use in fakin' I thought it was love, I guess I was mistaken The sign on the wall said no prisoners taken It's a dead giveaway, I feel my heart is breaking. |

Just one more morning I had to wake up with the blues. Went up on the mountain to see what I could see. The whole world was falling right down in front of me. Pulled myself out of bed, put on my walking shoes. Chorus: 'Cause I'm hung up on my dreams I'll never see. Yeah babe, oh help me babe. Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah. Climb down off the hilltop baby, Pull myself together, put on a new face, 'Cause I'm hung up on dreams I'll never see, Yeah babe, oh help me babe, And get back in the race. Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah.

My horse is kicking dust up off the trail, I'm just getting back from a trip to HELL. My six gun she's stapped by my side, Thunder is the horse that I ride. And it seems to me this is one hell of a way, For a man like me to earn that pay. Chorus: Outlaws on the loose. I wonder what they feel like when they're dying. Running, running from the noose. Blue steel flashing, hot lead flying, Is it worth the money I earn? Someday soon it might be my turn, For a man like me to earn that pay. And it seems to me this is one hell of a way, Outlaws on the loose, Chorus: Running, running from the noose. I'm a bounty hunter, I'll hunt you down, yeah, I will. LEAD BREAK It will....ha, ha, ha Did you know $500 will get your head blown off? Blue steel flashing, hot lead flying, I wonder what they fell like when they're dying. Is it worth the money I earn? Someday soon it might be my turn, And it seems to me this is one hell of a way, For a man like me to earn that pay. Outlaws on the loose, Running, running from the noose, Chorus: (REPEAT), I'm a bounty hunter going to hunt you down.
