[A phrase - Spoken]



Hey I'm gentleman

But I can take it 'bout as long as long can last and then

I'll take it on the chin

Mud is handy only when it comes to slingin' it



Oh 'cause you ain't playing nice

You've been rolling crooked dice

Oh 'cause you ain't playing nice

You've been rolling crooked dice



Hey all you fakir men

Get me when I'm goin' get me while I'm comin' in

I need not to pretend

But it's handy when I have to treat ya like a friend



Oh 'cause you ain't playing nice

You've been rolling crooked dice

Oh 'cause you ain't playing nice

You've been rolling crooked dice



Hey all you gamblin' souls

Ya play the horses and ya put me through your rigmarole

But I can feel you sinking low

And in fact you've fallen right in your own pigeonhole



Oh 'cause you ain't playing nice

You've been rolling crooked dice

Oh 'cause you ain't playing nice

You've been rolling crooked dice
