I've never had what I wanted
 I had to fight for what I've got
 I'd gamble with anything to keep from feeling
 Like a dime in a dollar slot

 But that's alright
 I've got one more pitch to throw
 I'd better hang on to myself tonight
 I've got one more round to go

 I've always had too much ambition
 And it's making me a wreck
 I'm bad with small talk,
 Feel like I've got the hand, but not a full deck

 But that's alright
 I've got one more ace to show
 I'd better hang on to myself tonight
 I've got one more round to go

 Oh, all that I want is to be left alone
 But they keep calling, thinking I'm stalling
 Oh, all that they want -give it heart
 Give it soul, don't forget rock and roll
 And by morning, need it by morning
 They say, "Let's go"

 My baby's been giving me a hard time
 And I don't know what to do
 I'm up sleepwalking, keep on talking
 Hell, I don't know who to

 But that's alright
 I've got one more chance to blow
 I'd better hang on to myself tonight
 I've got one more round to go-
 I'd better hang on to my ass tonight
 I've got one more round to go
