Lyrics
[Chorus] If I lose let me lose, I don't care how much I lose If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime For my baby, she keeps money all the time [Verse 1] I can't walk neither can I talk Just gettin' back from the state of old New York One mornin' before day [Verse 2] Flossie, oh, Flossie, now what is the matter? Walked all the way from old Cincinnati One mornin' before day [Chorus] If I lose let me lose and I don't care how much I lose If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime For my baby, she keeps money all the time [Verse 3] The blood was a-runnin', I was runnin' too To give my feet some exercise, I had nothin' else to do One mornin' before day [Verse 4] Yeah, the peas was so greasy, the meat was so fat The boys was fightin' the Spaniards while I was fightin' that One mornin' just before day [Chorus] If I lose let me lose, I don't care how much I lose If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime For my baby, she keeps money all the time [Verse 5] You ought to seen them boats, comin' round the bend Everyone was loaded down with American men One mornin' just before day [Chorus] If I lose let me lose, I don't care how much I lose If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm tryin' to win a dime For my baby, she keeps money all the time
