Artist/Band: The Hives
Lyrics for Song: Black Jack
Lyrics for Album: Barely Legal [1997]



Well I lost my shirt in Vegas

Lost the woman I adored

I was just about to cash in my chips

When I heard the word of the lord

He told me something I remember to this day

He said everyday's a Broderick

You don't owe it anything

And with every roll of the game with the dice

Is a whole new game of chance

And now I know

Just one thing for sure

Way of life

Is one big gamble

It can cut you

Like a knife

Hit me just

Once more, Jesus

With the Black Jack

Game of lies



The Black Jack game of lies



Got a roulette wheel that keeps spinning

With stacks I can't control

Well, I bring on the whole jackpot

Well, I win without my soul



But now I know I got one thing on my side

There ain't no telling what you've done

What I'll be throwing at you

but I got Jesus on my side

And the glow in the dark statue



But now I tried enough

He says to me

He says



(Go back to that way of life part)



[First verse repeated]

[Chorus repeated]
