It's been so very long since Lady Luck kissed you
Still, you listen for her song
And pray that she missed you
Dead inside 'cause you know it's all pretend
Close your eyes 'cause you're goin' off the deep end again

You're livin' for the rush, for that royal flush
But you take what you can get
You play your final ace for a pretty face
Tastes like Scotch and cigarettes
And you can't help fallin', goin' all in
Though your odds are bleak
Till you break your losin' streak

Ooh
Oh, no

You're livin' for the rush, for that royal flush
But the next best thing will do
You want to spend your chips on these rosy lips
Tryin' to get me next to you
'Cause you can't help needin' to believe in findin' what you seek
Till you break your losin'

Good luck out there, boys
