Lyrics
In for a dime, in for a dollar
Am I wasting time just dreaming of tomorrow?
Champagne and caviar, diamond rings
All these promises tied up with golden strings
Throwing good money after bad.
Give away my happiness for things that make me sad.
I may never know the workings of your heart and it drives me mad.
Am I just throwing good money after bad?
I'm knee deep in the big muddy.
I need a beer but I've lost all my drinking buddies
Working all-night shifts, just tryin' to deliver
But I'm still two paddles short and I'm halfway down the river...
Throwing good money after bad.
Give away my happiness for things that make me sad.
I may never know the workings of your heart and it drives me mad.
Am I just throwing good money after bad?
Oo, oo, oo, oo, ooo
Oo, oo, oo, good money after bad.
And I say Oo, oo, oo, oo, ooo
Throwing good money, good money after bad.
The wheel is turning and I'm all in
Love's a gamble and you play to win.
Cards on the table, hearts on the line
Show me yours and I'll show you mine
Show me yours and I'll show you mine
Your eyes are bluer than a sapphire stone Fortune smile upon me so I won't be alone Your kisses promise riches of a love so true
Ooh... What else can I do?
Throwing good money after bad.
Give away my happiness for things that make me sad.
I may never know the workings of your heart and it drives me mad.
Am I just throwing good money after bad?
