LUCKY SEVEN

VERSE
She warned me
Said if I loved her I would show it
and I would buy her a big diamond ring
I cashed in my paycheck and we headed for Vegas
Knowing that I could lose everything
I let the dice decide my future
Whether I'd win her or lose her
CHORUS
I didn't want to roll a Seven
Cause I sure loved that girl of mine
If I won we'd be in Heaven
All my money's on the line
I prayed I didn't get a Seven
VERSE 2
The dice fell
The 7 told me I'd lost my chance
She turned and laughed and said you lost it all
She only wanted a man with money
Knowin that 7 saved me from a fall
I let the dice decide my future
Made me a winner not a looser
CHORUS
I guess I threw a lucky seven
Sometimes when you lose you win,
If I'd won then I'd be livin
in a life I didn't wanna be in
I guess I threw a lucky seven
LEAD
REPEAT CHORUS
