Black Jack Song Lyrics

Black Jack by Hives

Well I lost my shirt in vegas
Lost the woman I adored
I was just about to cash in my chips
When I heard the word of the lord
He told me something I remember to this day
He said everyday’s a Brand new deck?
You don’t owe it anything
And with every roll of the game with the dice
Is a whole new game of chance
And now I know
Just one thing for sure
Way of life
Is one big gamble
It Can cut you
Like a knife
Hit me just
Once more, jesus
With the black jack
Game of lies
The blackjack game of lies
Got a rulete wheel that keeps spinning
With stacks I can’t control
Well I bring on the whole jackpot
Well I win without my soul
But now I know I got one thing on my side
There ain’t no telling what you’ve done
What I be throwin at you
But I got jesus on my side
And the glow in the dark statue
But now I tried enough
He says to me
He says
(Go back to that way of life part)
[First verse repeated] [Chorus repeated]
