Song Description

A lady working in a casino, trying to make enough money to move on.

Lyrics

She's got Twin Falls blasting on the radio, as she crosses the Nevada line.
Driving down to work at Cactus Jack's, one more week, one more month or just one more time.
She puts the money in her apron and the cards on the tray and she starts her night taking up the bets.
Someday she maybe dealing from the pit, but the big wheels's spinning and she's not there yet.

The chances of winning won't get better
The chances of winning on this desert strip
The chances of winning are the chances of losing
So she's only been gambling her tips.

The buses roll in off the horizon, pockets full of supplementary checks, coming in to gamble at Catus Jack's
They want the world, they want it now; they want a brand new deck.
She'll work behind the counter picking numbers for the game
She's heard a rumor but she better act quick
She's got her eye on a slot machine that's paying off tonight
Something 'bout good business, something 'bout a fix

The chances of winning won't get better
The chances of winning on this desert strip
The chances of winning are the chances of losing
So she's only been gambling her tips.

Someday she'll go see that horizon; she'll go driving off away on towards the moon, turning her back on Catus Jack.
She wants to leave, she wants to go, but it won't be soon
she'll always be dreaming of the dealing and the deck, she'll always be working for enough, to make it worth her while to come back tomorrow, to be that strong to be that tough.
The chances of winning won't get better
The chances of winning on this desert strip
The chances of winning are the chances of losing
So she's only been gambling her tips.
