The Fire

Can't Beat Those Gambling Blues
A soulful chicago blues about the downsides of gambling.

My pockets ran dry my heart feels bruised
Lost my last dime can’t shake these blues
Cards on the table they call my name
But the devil in the gamble plays his same old game

You can’t beat those gambling blues no way no how
Caught in the shuffle ain't no escape now
The dice keeps rollin’ luck’s a cruel muse
You can’t outrun those gambling blues

Every neon sign flickers in my mind
Promises of gold but it’s fool’s gold I find
The wheel spins fast but slower my hope fades
A jackpot dream built on hearts it raids

The deck is stacked house always wins
Every time I’m all in it’s my spirit that thins
My fingers itch but my soul just won’t choose
Can’t wrestle free of these gambling blues

Can't Beat Those Gambling Blues
