Hi Roller

(album: Time Loves A Hero - 1977)

Hi roller and a lowball jack
Stuck outside trying to truck it on back
Marooned on a lake, in a bad boder town
Watching the marks lay their money down
Hey now Jack, say hi, here's a sight to see
There's a queen of hears, and her fancy's free
Ace in the hole, it feels so nice
I'm just a fool, in a pair of dice

So hi roller, you're a lowball Jack
Stuck out of luck, get on back
She said she's a winner, that was easy to see
I told her there was something she could do for me, yeah

Lady, oh lady, be the wild card in my hand
I can't win for losing
In this no man's land
I been dealing from the bottom
The bottom of the deck
Blind alleys and dead ends, it's a lousy
Shipwreck
