21

Welcome to the hothouse
The game is called 21
I was in debt right up to my neck
I wasn't having any fun
But then the dealer turned around
She looked me right in the eye
I got no time for messing around, but you know I had to give it a try.

She got me under the gun
She can't have
21.

She asked me why I wasn't taking my time
Sweat running down my neck
I had the 6, the lady got 9
From the bottom of the deck
A 4 for me, it was a good thing
But she was sitting on a face
I said hit me with your best shot
And she gave me the ace.

She got me under the gun
She can't have
21
I've got to be the chosen one
She can't have
21.

I've gotta win
I've gotta win
Or I might as well be dead
God let me win (god let me win)
Just let me win (just let me win)
Or I might as well be dead.

She got me under the gun
She can't have
21
I've got to be the chosen one
She can't have
21.

Deuce's up, dealer has 21.
