Gamblers Prayer

Can't you see That I am a gambling man I'll lose it all But get it back again Believe me Nothing's free I've done some things And I'm not very proud Life finds a way To kick you when you're down Bring me fame Bring me fortune Or bring me nothing at all Stack the odds up against me I'm best when my backs to the wall Pride comes before the fall Highest highs And the lowest of lows Some nights all you do is win Some nights God only knows Bring me fame Bring me fortune Or bring me nothing at all Stack the odds up against me I'm best when my backs to the wall Bring me fame Bring me fortune Or bring me nothing at all Stack the odds up against me I'm best when my backs to the wall Pride comes before the fall Dear all heavenly fathers and virgin mothers All gods and goddesses Golden statues and spirits from beyond I stand before you a desperate man So guide my hand Be the trick up my sleeve Forgive me for all my sins Don't shut me out Deal me in Bring me fame Bring me fortune Or bring me nothing at all Stack the odds up against me I'm best when my backs to the wall Bring me fame Bring me fortune Or bring me nothing at all Stack the odds up against me I'm best when my backs to the wall Pride comes before the fall
