A Game In Town Like This Lyrics

Playin' late night crazy pot size games with the Asian dealers who

With all that tax free money got deeper pockets than I do

I can't fade that kind of action but my name's there on the list

Who would go to Vegas with a game in town like this?

Stuck in chilly morning traffic cuz I always played too long

Headed north across the bridge and wish'n you were there at home

You used to wake all sleepy headed and ask me if I won

Sometimes I'd just say nothing and now I'm living with what I've done.

I'm a losin' lately gambler but that's not all I've ever been

Cuttin' back your losses is just another way to win.

The chips were racked and ready and I was standing up to leave

Looked down and caught a diamond queen tuggin' at my sleeve

My bleary, up-all-nighted eyes misread it for a heart

Now the money's gone, it's just past dawn and we're a half world apart.

I'm a losin' lately gambler but that's not all I've ever been

Cuttin' back your losses is just another way to win.

I sat down with 'em one last time as I passed thru months ago

Donated a couple thousand, smiled, stood up and hit the road.

With that old familiar empty feelin' of time and treasure lost

The game's the same, ain't nothin's changed except now I know the cost

I'm a losin' lately gambler but I've booked my share of wins

I still see some value there but my edge is pretty thin

I'm a losin' lately gambler but that's not all I've ever been

Cuttin' back your losses is just another way to win.

I can't fade that kind of action but my name's there on the list

Who would go to Vegas with a game in town like this?
