Lyrics
Neon Lights
Gather round you card sharks
I'll deal you out a hand
Gamblin is my story and my fame
Joker is my handle
Home is at the track
Livin high and gamblin is my game
chorus
I don't want the neon lights to get me
i guess I'll fold my hand and hit the road
Ace high and jokers wild
And nine's is what I hold
This old game is far to rough to play
Vegas Detroit, Reni
I ='ve seen them once or twice
They left me cold and hungry on the road
Steaks and wine , I've had my share,
With women of the night
but no one there to help me share the load
CHORUS
I know I've reached my limit
I' sure I have to lrave
Gamblin is a very risky game
I had fun I lived to win
but it don't last for long
And losin never leaves you quite the same
CHORUS TO FINISH
