about

Always work the safe bet.

lyrics

Two drops of hot sauce
And I'm yours
Hit me with a finger of bourbon,
Get lost in zydeco.
Two-step Louisiana funk and it's hot.
No kings or J's to play I put my triple 8s down and I lost.

They dragged me through the parking lot
Then they took my car
They Hit with a 5 iron
Left me down
They hit me with a 5 iron
Took me out

Stop my card came up
The timing was right.
Should have quit while I was ahead.
Instead I raised and rolled that die
Got a hard line fever
Y'all see I play to win
I've put a lot in boy, so just sit back down and help me win my shit again.

They dragged me through the parking lot.
Then they took my car.
They Hit with a 5 iron
Left me down
They hit me with a 5 iron
Took me out

Know when to raise,
Know when to fold,
Know when to hold your cards,
Know when to call.
I know this song lets change the beat.
like a 38 pressed to my head.
And I'm sinking in trouble again.
I Tried to leave all causal like,
But people stopped and starred.
These guys were right behind of me and caught me unawares.
They dragged me through the parking lot and threw me down the stairs

They Hit with a 5 iron
Left me down
They hit me with a 5 iron
Took me out
They Hit with a 5 iron
Left me down
They hit me with a 5 iron
Took me out
