A Game In Town Like This - Corb Lund
Playin' late night crazy pot size games with the
Asian dealers who
With all that tax free money
Got deeper pockets than I do
I can't fade that kind of action
But my name's there on the list
Who would go to
Vegas with a game in town like this
Stuck in chilly morning traffic cuz
I always played too long
Headed north across the bridge
And wishing you were there at home
You used to wake all sleepy headed
And ask me if I won
Sometimes I'd just say nothing
And now I'm living with what I've done
I'm a losin' lately gambler
But that's not all I've ever been
Cuttin' back your losses
Is just another way to win
The chips were racked and ready and
I was standing up to leave
Looked down and caught a diamond
Queen tuggin' at my sleeve
My bleary
Up all nighted eyes misread it for a heart
Now the money's gone
It's just past dawn
And we're a half world apart
I'm a losin' lately gambler
But that's not all I've ever been
Cuttin' back your losses is
Just another way to win
I sat down with them one last time
As I passed thru months ago
Donated a couple thousand
Smiled stood up and hit the road
With that old familiar empty
Feelin' of time and treasure lost
The game's the same
Ain't nothin's changed except now I know the cost
I'm a losin' lately gambler
But I've booked my share of wins
I still see some value there
But my edge is pretty thin
I'm a losin' lately gambler
But that's not all I've ever been
Cuttin' back your losses is
Just another way to win
I can't fade that kind of action
But my name's there on the list
Who would go to Vegas
With a game in town like this
