A Gamblers Game
Love is a gambler’s game Either way it goes, You’ll never be the same I gambled half my pot And sent out my greatest ship But unlike what I thought, Cards of hearts were never flipped Soon I’m down to metal But I'll win it just you wait! I'll get a fortune settle Maybe she’s just late… I gambled with nothing left But gave up my addiction I...

Premium Member Gamblers and Mourners 'Round the World
The gamblers and the mourners Explore the vagaries of fate, The expediency of life Dangling in the capitol rotunda Like a hanged man His hair standing on end, His boots in the air. Write, sing, boo, Do what you will Never mind the outcome. Words are cheap, they said, But they knew better. The price was dust-- Gold dust, that is-- By the ounce. Enough. Enough. Swinging from that bough, Rope...

Conform not my reply, say lest it is the quiet's way, infest and all that seek chance, ply invest and all that labor ~ try in wrest! Where mockery lays to rest and years gone by are best . . I lay my quandary's test . . . God's laundry of duress! Can fool the purse of paradise, the gamblers take their lives and...

Gamblers All
Gamblers All by Rick Rucker Some gamble big, others small, I can assure you, we're gamblers all. Some bet it all on the roll of dice, Others asking out a Woman, nice. Bullfighters live on odds real slim, That they stab the Bull, 'fore it stabs him! Some drivers bet that a light, turning red, Still means that it's clear ahead. There is a growing...
