 Well, shooting them *high dice
 And that woman a-mine
 Caused me to wear poor and beat
 In the cold winter time
 Now, all a-you men better
 Take my advise
 Just hold to your money
 Stop shootin' high dice
 (instrumental)
 Now, most ev'ry woman
 In the neighborhood
 Will get all your money
 An don't mean you no good
 When she get all, you're banned
 You think ya g'win her home
 You go there the next night
 Something goin' on wrong
 (guitar & fiddle)
 Now, this has caused me
 To live in a strain
 Have spent all m'money
 And it was in vain
 But if f'ever gets my hands on
 A dollar again
 I'm gonna hold on to-oo it
 That's my only friend.

 Note: *High Dice is a simple dice game with
 Two dice used (or as many as five.)
 Banker throws first and players have to roll higher
 Than his roll to win.
 (it's something like that!)
