Lyrics
Sucker’s Game
Music and lyrics by Neil Fergus
Copyright, Neil Fergus, 2002
I’ve been gambling since I was ten, been losing since I was five
Been hustled in pool halls, all my fighters took a dive
Now I made some bad bets baby, I must admit
I’ve lost to a blind guy who made a 7-10 split
Now there’s one more game
I can’t afford to lose
All I need is one more chance…
In this sucker’s game,
Love’s a sucker’s game
I’ve played 3-card Monty
I’ve rolled some loaded dice
Tossed my rings at the county fair
Couldn’t win a booby prize
Now I’ve bet on everything I ever did see
I’ve bet on long shots honey, where the jockey was bigger than me
Now there’s one more game
I can’t afford to lose
Break the bank or break my heart,
It’s all up to you…
Love’s a sucker’s game
One more game
One more spin
One more card
And I’ll win, your love again.
Now there’s one more game
I can’t afford to lose
Break the bank or break my heart
It’s all up to you…
Take one more chance on me
Take one more chance on me…
