You Bet Your Life

(album: Roll The Bones - 1991)

Just another hunter, like a wolf in the sun
Just another junkie on a scoring run
Just another victim of the things he has done
Just another day in the life of a loaded gun

The odds get even
You name the game
The odds get even
The stakes are the same
You bet your life...

Just another winner, pours his life down the drain
Just another island in a hurricane
Just another loser, like a cat in the rain
Just another day in the path of a speeding train

The odds get even
You name the game
The odds get even
The stakes are the same
You bet your life...

Anarchist reactionary running dog revisionist

Just another gypsy with a plastic guitar
Just another dancer with her eyes on the stars
Just another dreamer who was going too far
Just another drunk at the wheel of a stolen car

The odds get even
The odds get even
You bet your life...
