Walk On The Hot Coals

Well I lost my shirt in a card game in which I never had a chance

Well I lost my shirt in a card game at which I never had a chance

The deck was marked, the game was rigged, you could not tell at a glance



Well I lost my job at the weekend...



Well I walk on hot coals sleep on a bed of nails

Walk on thin ice, skate on razor blades

Got my little girl beside me, no matter what else fails



Well I spent it all down at the racetrack...

Gonna throw away my lucky penny...



Well I walk on hot coals sleep on a bed of nails

Walk on thin ice, skate on razor blades

Got my little girl beside me, no matter what else fails
