lyrics

"A Winning Hand"
© 2/6/2015 Cathy Lemons/ Take No Prisoners/BMI

Woke up this morning
Got no use for it
Aint got ono reason to carry on

Got a crazy talkin’ in my head
Sayin’ I should let it all fall down

Wait a minute, baby close the door
Sit yourself right down
You gotta hear every last word I got to say to you
Let me clear up all your doubts

I’m gonna lay down my cards
I don’t think that you’re gonna keep up
I’m out a time, and I’m runnin’ behind
So I’m bettin’ all I got

On a winning hand!
I need a wining hand! Ya, I! Yes I do!


I been walkin’ straight up a hill
I swear by god most a my life
I got a stone around my neck
Still walkin’ up a straight line

Baby that rock you got hangin’ round your neck
It’s all in your head don’t you know it’s true
You just a little bit scared, but that ain’t too bad, babe
Something good is gonna happen to you

I seen your cards, baby, yes I have
‘Cause I seen that twitch in your left eye
I got the Queen, but you got the King and the Jack
Together we might fly!
With a winning hand!
We got a winning hand! Ya I, yes we do!

I can’t work no farm no factory
Lord knows I ain’t gonna suit up
I guess I lie to myself
This game is all I got

Wouldn’t you like to see the look in their green little eyes
When we finally make it to the top
We’ll be looking down on that dirty little town
So baby keep tryin’ don’t you never give up

Lord let me die with a hammer in my hand
Takin’ a crack at this crazy dream
I know I’m a loser
But my luck is in being alive
Nothing is how it seems
We got a winning hand! Ya I
We got a winning hand! Ya I! Yes we do!
