i was sitting at the table justa playin' 21
i was getting pretty good at the game
i was holding on a 20 but the dealer drew an ace
now i haven't got a penny to my name
well i said now wait a minute buddy, that's how it goes
think you've made, baby you just never know
well i met a little lady and i kinda liked her style
and i think she really liked mine to
so we headed for the exit, we were walking hand in hand
and i knew just what i wanted to do
she said now wait a minute honey, and that's how it goes
think you've made it, baby you just never know
everytime i get caught up, thinkin' things will be ok
if i play my cards just right, i'll be gettin' lucky today, b-b-b-b
baby won't ya come by on a saturday night,
i'm feelin' lonely kinda needin' a friend
then i hear a voice behind her say "you better hang up,
'cause tonight you'll be staying in"
i said now wait a minute honey, but that's how it goes
think you've made it, baby you just never know
everytime i get caught up, thinkin' things will be ok
if i play my cards just right, i'll be gettin' lucky today, b-b-b-b
baby won't ya come by on a saturday night,
i'm feelin' lonely kinda needin' a friend
then i hear a voice behind her say "you better hang up,
'cause tonight you'll be staying in"
i said now wait a minute honey, but that's how it goes
think you've made it, baby you just never know

i hate it that i'm leavin' but it's, come to pass
the verdict came back guilty and i'm, gonna get the gas
ride on now, ride on silver train
well there's nothing left for me to do
self defense is my excuse
im the one that's gonna lose on silver train
should've come home early but i, had to stay
all i need is one more pass and, i'll be ok
ride on now, ride on silver train
i can see those lights behind me but i've come and gone
maybe i'll be back some day if you're, still hanging on
ride on now, ride on silver train
well there's nothing left for me to do
self defense is my excuse
im the one that's gonna lose on silver train
make it to the station gotta, hitch a ride
i'd say goodbye tomorrow but I, ain't got the time
ride on now, ride on silver train
well there's nothing left for me to do

slow down baby, try one drink at a time
might not be tonight girl, guess i never really did come through
you're a one time lover and full time i.o.u.
late last night, you barely made it in by 3
you were weavin' and a wobblin' but you made it home eventually
yeah, ya come home yellin' and your sayin' that i done you wrong
try and remember as you're slurring out your favorite song
might not be tonight girl, but i tell you what i'm gonna do
slow down baby, try one drink at a time
might not be tonight girl, guess i never really did come through
you're a one time lover and full time i.o.u.
late last night, you barely made it in by 4
one drink later and i caught ya creepin' the door
two fisted drinkin', you've been partying all night long
try not to listen as your slurring out your favorite song
might not be tonight girl, but i tell you what i'm gonna do
slow down baby, try one drink at a time
might not be tonight girl, guess i never really did come through
you're a one time lover and full time i.o.u.

complicated, space in time
overrated, outta line
and ya never know baby, if they're coming today
pull the hammer down
shimmy shuffle down my way
come tomorrow, not tonight
over under, outta sight
and ya never know baby, what they're trying to say
pull the hammer down
shimmy shuffle down my way
listen to me darlin', 'cause it's all i gotta say
you can try again tomorrow, let's forget about today
in the meantime girl, shimmy shuffle down my way
inspiration, still intact
contemplation, is all it lacked
and ya never know baby, what they're trying to say
pull the hammer down
shimmy shuffle down my way
listen to me darlin', 'cause it's all i gotta say
you can try again tomorrow, let's forget about today
in the meantime girl, shimmy shuffle down my way

shift them gears i'm movin' on
deadline coming, hightway runnin' and i'm the one
deadline coming, hightway runnin' and i'm the one
i'm movin' on
blood and flesh, sweat and bone
take your life, steal your home
maybe i'll try something new
one last run, before i'm through
deadline coming, hightway runnin' and i'm the one
deadline coming, hightway runnin' and i'm the one
i'm movin' on
every morning i wake the sun
some say im the lucky one
boost that car, hit that gas
come one baby won't ya let me pass
deadline coming, hightway runnin' and i'm the one
deadline coming, hightway runnin' and i'm the one
i'm movin' on

love bone

well ya know i love that woman
but i love her sister too
guess it doesn't matter 'cause
either one will do
now i wonder, which one calls me on the phone
when they both come over, reach down and grab that love bone
one in pink and pleasant, one in cherry red
take some time, drink some wine
and get right out your head, just remember
you ain't the first one that i've known
better late than never, reach down and grab that love bone
now you've head this story, and if this lie was true
i'd be with 10 chicks at once, before the night is through
but it's no wonder, why i'm sittin' here all alone
checkin' out some porno, reach down and grab that love bone
