|
Well she grabbed me and asked me, |
|
If I had a name, |
|
She told me she was interested to see, |
|
If I could play the game, |
|
She said her name was victory, |
|
She didn't want to know the rules, |
|
That's just the way |
|
I wanted to play, |
|
In a game designed for fools. |
|
Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again, |
|
We were gambling with our souls, |
|
We were playing to win, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again. |
|
Well I rolled the dice feelin' cold as ice, |
|
And Victory drew the cards, |
|
We knew that loosin' when the stakes were high, |
|
Could really hit us hard, |
|
I strapped into the drivers seat, |
|
With Miss |
|
Victory by my side, |
|
She knew at a glance she was takin' a chance, |
|
By coming along for the ride. |
|
Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again, |
|
We were gambling with our souls, |
|
We were playing to win, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again. |
|
Time and space stood still that day, |
|
With Victory's soul and mine, |
|
We were running a race between heaven and hell, |
|
And we could not find the finish line, |
|
And when it was all over we won it in the end, |
|
We were splittin' the prize when she opened her eyes, |
|
And said Baby let's try it again. |
|
Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again, |
|
We were gambling with our souls, |
|
We were playing to win, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again. |
|
Chorus: We were beatin' the odds, we were beatin' the odds, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again, |
|
We were gambling with our souls, |
|
We were playing to win, |
|
We were beatin' the odds again. |
