Laying low in Eli, Nevada on the loneliest highway just west of Utah it has started to snow, I got a room for the night I put a fiver in the slot, I took a shot and then on came the lights bars of four came up twice and a double super bonus, yeah twice was nice, you know I couldn't believe it I didn't even know how much it was But it must've been the light, I hit the jackpot I mean that whole place was abuzz I've always been just a scratch off ticket till I win another ticket to play then come up empty and I throw that thing away you know I tossed it on the floor like I was bored but it was worth a shot to play I've seen no luck in old Beloxi you know I lost hundreds and hundreds worth of twenties but at the hotel Nevada everything changed I bought drinks for the house A King's sweet with a couch SongtexteI mean the whole scene was a little weird and strange The night went on and I got loaded, you know when you're loaded it's too easy to get loaded don't you know what I mean I'm talking loot cakes of cash my casino cup was full, I had control but it was a drastic contrast I met this girl, blue eye shadow bleach blonde hair, silver sparkly stiletto she's a drag strip dream a real card playing queen but I could tell she'd come to scam with all her phony glitz and glam but she damned my conscious stream This girl she was much like a slot machine lowest odds you can't win off some card playing queen but I let it roll I wanted a golden egg from this sparrow and then the pot bellied waitress said ?here's a free shot, you should take this? and my sights got a little narrow I got sleepy she'd say ?come on honey let's go upstairs before you lose the rest of your money? besides, you might get a little lucky with this card playing queen my head was spinning like a roulette wheel with weighted dice, the loaded feel but I was cooking up my own scheme so off to bed I go with a girl I don't even know Yeah I roll, roll, roll through the sheets we did roll I woke up to an empty casino cup red lipstick on the mirror read ?a sucker was sucked? so I made some coffee tried to reevaluate my luck card playing queen departed, so I'm back to where I started but she was kind enough, she was woman enough, she's good enough to leave my five bucks Aus Songtexte Mania
