The Hollies - Russian Roulette lyrics

Back street dive down in New Orleans Gambler shows his face The place was full of jacks and queens But I never came up with that bread-winning ace Whisky's cheap at twice the price When it k**s the pain of bad tumbling dice The scene's all set for an IOU Give it one more spin then that's me I'm through The wheel's like a chamber in Russian roulette I'm takin' a chance and I'm gunnin' for red The wheel's like a chamber in Russian roulette I'm takin' a chance and I'm gunnin' for red Lost my shirt headed for the bar Gonna drown my sorrows in a whisky jar Head hung low because I got beat I see a hundred dollar bill layin' at my feet The wheel's like a chamber in Russian roulette I'm takin' a chance and I'm gunnin' for red The wheel's like a chamber in Russian roulette I'm takin' a chance and I'm gunnin' for red Headed for the tables I'm wearin' my shades Got to find me a lucky green top, Can't be one I've played My hands are shakin' don't wanna lose my cool Should I keep the big C or gamble like a fool? The wheel's like a chamber in Russian roulette I'm takin' a chance and I'm gunnin' for red The wheel's like a chamber in Russian roulette I'm takin' a chance and I'm gunnin' for red
