I Wouldn't Put It Past Me

Dwight Yoakam · A Long Way Home [Reprise] [1998]

I wouldn't put it past me

I wouldn't press my luck

If I were you I don't believe

I'd take that chance with love



A big chance you'll be taking

The wrong odds is what you're staking us on

And any love you wind up making

Won't pay back half of all we've lost



I wouldn't play so boldly

Or push a sure thing too long

'Cause your luck can get thin, bets not win

Then pretty soon love's up and gone



A big chance you'll be taking

The wrong odds is what you're staking us on

And any love you wind up making

Won't pay back half of all we've lost



So I wouldn't put it past me



I wouldn't keep risking heartache

In any more games like these

'Cause there's a way to lose hard with every card

You'll find out on your knees



A big chance you'll be taking

The wrong odds is what you're staking us on

And any love you wind up making

Won't pay back half of all we've lost



So I wouldn't put it past me

I wouldn't press my luck

If I were you I don't believe

I'd take that chance with love



A big chance you'll be taking

The wrong odds is what you're staking us on

And any love you wind up making

Won't pay back half of all we've lost



I wouldn't put it past me...
