Lyrics
NOTHING TO LOSE
words & music
by Rick Sloan
COPYRIGHT @2002
Loose change wore a hole in my jeans, took away my last dime
There's another hole in my sneaker sole from working overtime
Baby I'm at the bottom, but I'm not crying the blues
I know I got nothing, so I got nothing to lose
chorus
Nothing to lose, nothing to lose
A pocket full of lottery tickets, and I'm praying one comes through
Button up my last clean shirt, put on my dancing shoes
Roll those dice one more time, cause I got nothing to lose
I?m never alone in this empty house, that?s what keeps me sane
Cause I got ghosts in the bedroom, living in picture frames
They say true love?s a gamble, but I all ready paid my dues
It might mean all mean nothing, but I got nothing to lose
bridge
There's still a fire left in my soul, about to go up in smoke
Here's my chance to take control, so baby, I'm going for broke
2nd chorus
Nothing to lose, nothing to lose
A closet full of Ray Charles, I?d love to play for you
Put on ?Let?s Go Get Stoned?, maybe some ?Georgia? too
Hold you in my arms all night long, cause I got nothing to lose
tag
I?m making you this final offer, you just can?t refuse
Let?s roll those dice one more time, cause baby
I got nothing to lose
