Prog - 3


I got whiskey for breakfast, poker by noon
Gotta get to sinning and play the devils tune
The preacher says I'm headed straight to hell
Might as well go there with a story to tell

Got a woman in every town I've been
All of them just as steeped in liquor and sin
Times running out, my luck's running thin
But I'll keep on going till the house cashes in

I'm a hard drinkin', hard gamblin' man
Living fast as I can
The devil's got my soul on layaway
So I'm gonna make him wait
Squeeze every drop, roll every dice
If I'm damned anyway, might as well live twice
Yeah, I'm drinking with the devil tonight

I've lost more money than most men make
Broke more hearts than any man should break
When the reaper comes knocking I won’t blink
I'll say "Deal your self in and pour me a drink”

They'll bury me with cards and a half full glass
Won't be no tears, won't be no funeral mask
Just the truth that I lived how I chose
Went down swinging in my Sunday clothes

I'm a hard drinkin', hard gamblin' man
Living fast as I can
The devil's got my soul on layaway
So I'm gonna make him wait
Squeeze every drop, roll every dice
If I'm damned anyway, might as well live twice
Yeah, I'm drinking with the devil tonight

Pour me one more...
Deal me one more...
I'm going down...
But going down slow...
