Intro
Verse 1
They built a casino out under the stars
With neon lights blinkin' on tired rusty cars
Card sharks take my money, Whiskey puts me in jail
An oasis of misery I know it so well
Verse 2
I pawned my last silver it sparkled and shined
And a beautiful ring from the black hills gold mine
A hole in my pocket that money did burn
A loser beyond the point of return
Solo
Verse 3
My woman couldn't take my Friday night ways
She left me in search of her better days
Now I'm tortured by silence and being alone
And the shadows of evil that inherit my bones
Verse 4
So it's back to the place where I gambled on hope
My name once respected is now but a joke
Cause I stumble back home, I murmur a prayer
And can't help but wonder is God really there
Steel solo
