At the Deadwood Casino there's some trouble brewing
You're looking uptight, lady luck's not with you tonight
I think you're losing the fight
The game has been rigged, but you keep on playing
We crowd in to see what your next move's going to be
You should've listened to me
You gambled with the devil and your life was the stake
He dealt a pair of aces and a pair of eights
Boy if there's one thing that I don't understand
You should've folded when you got the dead man's hand
You got the dead man's hand
You got the dead man's hand
You've run out of credit, but you still ain't quitting
You ask for a loan, but you're out there on your own
Yeah, sinking like a stone
You throw down the cards, and I see you running
You try to escape, but you can't get out of this place
They're gonna make you pay
You gambled with the devil and your life was the stake
He dealt a pair of aces and a pair of eights
Boy if there's one thing that I don't understand
You should've folded when you got the dead man's hand
You got the dead man's hand
You got the dead man's hand
You gambled with the devil and your life was the stake
He dealt a pair of aces and a pair of eights
Boy if there's one thing that I don't understand
You never should've played on with the dead man's hand
You got the dead man's hand
You got the dead man's hand
