[Verse 1] Since it cost a lot to win And even more to lose You and me bound to spend some time Wondering what to choose [Pre-Chorus] It goes to show you don't ever know Watch each card you play And play it slow [Chorus] Wait until your deal come round Don't you let that deal go down [Verse 2] I been gambling hereabouts For ten good solid years If I told you all that went down It would burn off both your ears [Pre-Chorus] It goes to show you don't ever know Watch each card you play And play it slow [Chorus] Wait until your deal come round Don't you let that deal go down [Verse 3] Since you poured the wine for me And tightened up my shoes I hate to leave you sitting there Composing lonesome blues [Pre-Chorus] It goes to show that you don't ever know Watch each card you play and Play it slow [Chorus] Wait until your deal come round Don't you let that deal go down [Outro] Don't you let that deal go down Don't you let that deal go down
