This very cool song was written by Clint and by Hayden Nicholas (who also
co-wrote _No Time to Kill_) with copyright by Blackened Music.  Lyrics are:

"A high roller even when the chips are down
 To win her over, I'd seen the tables turn around
 She's ten the hard way, I can feel it in my bones
 She'll be makin' my day and not another night alone
 Till it's time for a windfall and not a single minute too soon
 I've been too long overdue, now I'm gonna shoot the moon

 CHORUS
 I'd bet it all on a good run of bad luck
 Seven come eleven and she could be mine
 Luck be a lady, and I'm gonna find love comin' on the bottom line

 I've been to the table, and I've lost it all before
 I'm willin' and able, always comin' back for more
 Squeezin' out a thin dime till there's no one hanging on my arm
 I've gambled on a third time, a fool will tell you it's a charm
 If I'm bettin' on a loser, I'm gonna have a devil to pay
 But it's the only game I know how to play, it doesn't matter anyway"


Keep listenin' to my man Clint.
