The Overtones
Gambling Man
[Verse 1]
I met you once, I loved you twice
That's the way this tale begins
I played my hand, I rolled the dice
Now I'm paying for my sins

[Pre-Chorus]
I got some bad addiction, baby
It's you, yeah, yeah, that's right
And I feel you taking over me
Could luck be a lady in here tonight?

[Chorus]
My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all
My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all
(Baby, I'd lose it all)

[Post-Chorus]
Baby
[Verse 2]
Oh, could you be the queen of hearts
Or the devil in disguise?
With every move I'm blinded by those
Diamonds in her eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
I got some bad addiction, baby
It's you, yeah, yeah, that's right
And I feel you taking over me
Could luck be a lady in here tonight?

[Chorus]
My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all
My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all
(Baby, I'd lose it all)

[Bridge]
I'm wrapped up in your sweet loving
But it feels just like a curse (Feels just like a curse)
You're beneath my skin, I start trembling
With this love so dangerous
(Place your bets)
I want you
(Place your bets)
Why don't you just place your bets on me?
[Chorus]
My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all
My odds are stacked
I've never been a gambling man
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all
My odds are stacked (Oh yeah)
I've never been a gambling man (I've never had)
I've never had the winning hand (Oh, for you)
But for you, I'd lose it all (I would lose it all)
My odds are stacked (Yeah)
I've never been a gambling man (I've never been)
I've never had the winning hand
But for you, I'd lose it all

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
But for you, for you
I would lose it all
