No Better Will You Fare On the Other Side of the Delaware
If you go over to that craps table today,
chances are, with empty pockets you will walk away.
You will be sorry if you adamantly stay.
A few lucky suckers may experience a win.
However, evanescent will be their victorious grin.
Whatever they win will be thrown back to the house.
After their bankroll is tapped, they will feel like a louse.
Remember what happened the last time in Atlantic City?
You lost that fiery temper of yours, and tangled with security.
In no time at all, what developed was a fist city.
The outcome of the donnybrook was not very pretty.
They booted you out of the place, and didn’t feel any pity.
For all you did, you should have realized.
From that particular hotel, you would be ostracized.
Today, we are on the other side of the Delaware.
In this Pennsylvania house, no better will you fare.
