Solas - Lay Your Money Down lyrics

Like a moth unto a candle, drawn down to the light She's a diamond set in jet they say she's a Shamrock City night Matthew Mark Luke and John your belfry color fades With each step down Wyoming street and down to Clipper Shades Drinks are on the house here Sonny the sweetest deal in town You can't take it with you honey so lay your money down A Dollar gets you in my friend to shake the hand of sleight Lady Luck is up on the tables this Shamrock City night Careful if you're rolling high how hard the mighty fall Old Callahan the bum thinks this is where he lost it all A queen don't beat a jack here Sonny it's just that kind of town Are you thinkin' red or black now honey just lay your money down Bow to Shoestring Annie she barks worse than she bites Her tongue will lash damnation blue this Shamrock City night Scoop for Colonel Buckets hasn't backed a loser yet He's got one eye on the table has he spied his Juliette Double up your stack now Sonny she's out there on the town Luck says don't look back now honey just lay your money down Luck says don't look back now honey just lay your money down Jump from Fat Jack's carriage onto the little streets Who's daily bread to spin your head and knock you off your feet Come let Spanish Rose and me make all your wrongs seem right It's heaven in a wallet skin on a Shamrock City night Lie here on your back now Sonny and dream of Swinford town I'll be your sweetheart for one hour just lay your money down Drinks are on the house here Sonny You can't take it with you honey A queen beats a jack here Sonny Are you thinkin' red or black now honey Double up your stack now Sonny Luck says don't look back now honey Lay your money Lay your money Lay your money down Lay your money Lay your money Lay your money down
