I Saw It Coming

(album: Under The Table And Above The Sun - 2003)

Well I pulled into Jackpot
Outta Ely and red-hot
I was liking the action
You laid on the charm.

As well as some hot tips
A kiss from her red lips
I thought how could I lose
So I bet the farm.

Ill wind is blowing
I hear the drumming
I know where this is going
I see it coming.

You're holding a pat hand
You're playing the dealer
The odds are way up there
The cocktails are free.

The cards you've been holding
Ain't what you've been throwing
I've lately been knowing
That you're bluffing me.

You'll be high rolling
I'll be out bumming
And I know you're going
I saw it coming.

Gambling is knowing
When you should be calling it quits
When you're down to a handful of hearts
That are broken to bits.

Ill wind is blowing
I hear the drumming
I know you're going
I had it coming.

You'll be high rolling
I'll be out slumming
I know you're going
I saw it coming.

I know you're going
I saw it coming
