Paroles

0:01I'm down to a roll of dimes
0:05I'm stalking the slot that's hot
0:07I keep hearing bells all around me
0:09Jingling in the lucky jackpots
0:12They keep you tantalized
0:13They keep you reaching for your wallet
0:15Here in fools' paradise
0:17I talked to a cat from des moines
0:20He said he ran a cleaning plant
0:22That cat was clanking with coin
0:25Well he must have had a genie in a lamp
0:28'Cause every time I dropped a dime I blew it
0:30He kept ringing bells
0:31Nothing to it
0:33He got three oranges
0:35Three lemons
0:36Three cherries
0:36Three plums
0:37I'm losing my taste for fruit
0:39Watching the dry cleaner do it
0:42Like midas in a polyester suit
0:44It's all luck
0:45It's just luck
0:47You get a little lucky and you make a little
0:49Money
1:06I followed him down the strip
1:09He picked out a booth at circus circus
1:11Where the cowgirls fill the room
1:12With their big balloons
1:14The cleaner was pitching with purpose
1:17He had dinos and pooh bears
1:18And lions pink and blue there
1:21He couldn't lose there
1:33It's all luck
1:34It's just luck
1:37Des moines was stacking the chips
1:40Raking off the tables
1:41Ringing the bandit's bells
1:44This is a story that's a drag to tell
1:46In some ways
1:46Since I lost every dime
1:48I laid on the line
1:49But the cleaner from des moines
1:50Could put a coin
1:51In the door of a John
1:53And get twenty for one
1:54It's just luck
2:26Lucky lucky so lucky
2:32You lucky
2:45That's catch what luck
2:47That's catch what luck
2:50That's catch what luck
2:53That's catch what luck
2:58Lili lucky
