Serious

When I look back at my time at the track
 And I played and I played and I played and I was
 Shooting the craps at the back of Fat Jack's
 Come on fade me Jake
 I'm a Las Vegas dreamer they took to the cleaners
 A bath what a bath what a bath I'd take
 A fish on a hook I was rattled and shook 'cause I lost my stake
 I took that serious
 All of my life was a laugh and a joke
 And a drink and a smoke
 And then I passed out on the floor
 Again and again and again and again and again
 ♪
 I'm a gambling fool with a roll and a cue
 Wanna play wanna play wanna play with me
 Put my ass on the line rubbed my nose in the grime
 And they picked me clean
 The chance and the game drove Old Silkly insane
 What a pain what a strain on my brain it was
 A fish on a hook I was rattled and shook 'cause I lost my stake
 I took that serious
 All of my life was a laugh and a joke
 A drink and a smoke
 And then I passed out on the floor
 Again and again and again and again and again
 Serious it was serious oh so serious
 Serious it was serious oh so serious
 ♪
 All of my life was a laugh and a joke
 A drink and a smoke
 And then I passed out on the floor
 Or a friend
 Again and again and again and again and again
 All of my life was a laugh and a joke
 A drink and a smoke
 And then I passed out on the floor
 Or a friend
 Again and again and again and again and again and again
 And again and again and again and again and again
 And again and again
