Lady Luck

I've been looking gaunt, I've been looking old Used to have eyes, it was so full of soul But that woman, she's stealing it all from under my nose Wasting my days and spending my wages On a woman who doesn't know my name Lady Luck is my mistress and she don't give a damn She'll steal the soul right out of any old poor man A gambling man through and through I sold my soul, I'm done lying to you Man's only good as his word, they say And I lie to myself just to get through the day I'm a slave to the cards, I'm drowning in debt One more loan on top of the rest Another bump in another dream All just to feel like I'm not stuck with me My brother, he told me my cards, his loss He doesn't know I'm gonna hit that jackpot in a few days I'm a gambling man through and through I sold my soul, I'm done lying to you Man's only good as his word, they say And I lie to myself just to get through the day Looking worse and older still This shit don't even get me a thrill My mistress, she still hangs around It's 'cause of her I won't leave this town I'm a beggar but a castle's my home Caesar's Palace is where I roam Lady Luck, she is my queen A sadder life I have never seen I'm a gambling man through and through I sold my soul, I'm done lying to you Man's only good as his word, they say And I lie to myself just to get through the day
