If you like to gamble
I’ll tell you I’m your man
You win some you lose some
It’s all the same to me
The pleasure is to play,
It makes no difference what you say
I don’t share your greed,
The only card I need is

[Chorus]
The ace of spades
The ace of spades

Playing for the high one
Dicing with the devil
Going with the flow
It’s all a game for me
7 or 11
Snake eyes watching you
Double up or quit
The devil’s strike is split

[Chorus]

You know I’m going to lose
Cause gambling is for fools
But that’s the way I like it, baby
I don’t want to live forever
And don’t forget the joker

Pushing up the ante
I know you’ve got to see me
Read ’em and weep
The dead man’s hand again
I see it in your eyes
Take one look and die
The only thing you’ll see
You know it’s gonna be

[Chorus]
