I'm drinking whiskey, whiskey and gin
I'm driving fast before the fever kicks in
My woman's left me because I'm rolling the dice
I better quit because I'm paying the price
Monday, Tuesday, and every other day
The stakes are high it's a pleasure to play
I got the devil's hands
I know all the cheats
I'm standing proud
Now turn up the heat

I'm a gambling man, I play the devil's hand
I'm a gambling man, I play the devil's hand
It's double or quits

Tumbling dice fever, to lose is a sin
The hand that you're dealt is the luck that comes in
Twist, stick or bust means nothing to me
Another double and it's plain to see
Monday, Tuesday, and every other day
My blood's hungry for the thrill of the play
My woman's left me because I'm rolling the dice
Don't want to quit because I'm winning the prize

I'm a gambling man, I play the devil's hand
I'm a gambling man, I play the devil's hand
It's double or quits
