Gamble Either Way
Though the deck is stacked against you Win or lose, you have to play The hand a life has dealt you And it's a gamble either way
On a dust road at 15 in a yellow cotton dress With the desert sun like an angry dragon breathing down my neck And the dry cracked plains would make me think of a prehistoric time Or should i fear what lay before me less than what i'd left behind A 15 year old girl don't have no trouble hitching rides But sometimes when you're riding free You'll pay the highest price On back roads and in back seats And in a cheap highway motel But what's a few more strangers in a life of nothing else
Repeat chorus Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
16 caught me crying, underneath the scarlet light On the door steps of a stranger on a cold and rainy night When i walked into the parlour here Other pieces seemed to fit I was good at pleasing strangers So i made the most of it
Either way it's all a gamble So view the stakes and know the odds And lay your cards upon the table Do all the dealing from the top
Repeat chorus
