Gamble with the Devil

[00:00.59] I'm married to a beauty
[00:02.23] But she's doomed to die
[00:04.38] A reaper at the doorstep asks
[00:06.45] "Ready for goodbye?"
[00:08.12] I can't let her go
[00:09.91] But there's just no way out
[00:12.12] Go down to the bar
[00:13.89] And hope to black out
[00:23.77] So, I walk in
[00:24.95] And tell my story to the barman
[00:27.44] He listens to me and says, "No worries, boy, I've got a good plan"
[00:31.31] He opens up a secret door
[00:33.35] Showing me his joker
[00:35.10] I can't believe my eyes
[00:36.58] It's the devil playin' poker
[00:38.96] I gamble with the devil
[00:40.88] And begin my prayer
[00:42.74] My stake is my soul
[00:44.68] And my pot is my love affair
[00:46.52] I gamble with the devil
[00:48.55] To save my wife
[00:50.46] So, we can be together in the afterlife
[00:54.31] So, we can be together in the afterlife
[01:05.85] The game is on
[01:07.26] And I break out in sweat, I have to win
[01:11.03] Or I'll always regret
[01:13.48] I picture my wife in purgatory all day
[01:17.34] The devil, oh, he grins
[01:19.29] Has got to pray
[01:21.12] I gamble with the devil
[01:23.04] And begin my prayer
[01:24.98] My stake is my soul
[01:26.85] And my pot is my love affair
[01:28.93] I gamble with the devil
[01:30.73] To save my wife
[01:32.68] So, we can be together in the afterlife
[01:36.35] So, we can be together in the afterlife
[01:40.29]
[01:51.55] After five rounds of poker
[01:53.87] My pot is really high
[01:55.62] The devil he is angry
[01:57.61] He looks me in the eye
[01:59.61] "Oh, you little bastard
[02:01.34] Never mind what I said
[02:03.36] I will keep your wife down
[02:05.32] With me in hell" (ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
[02:10.12] I gambled with the devil
[02:11.83] And began my prayer
[02:13.92] My stake was my soul
[02:15.67] And my pot was my love affair
[02:17.93] I gambled with the devil
[02:19.53] And I lost my wife
[02:21.64] So, we won't be together in the afterlife
[02:25.78] We won't be together in the afterlife
[02:29.35] Don't gamble with the devil
[02:31.19] You cannot win
[02:33.04] Don't trust his words
[02:35.19] Don't fall for his grin
[02:37.07] Don't gamble with the devil
[02:38.78] Or you'll lose your wife
[02:40.79] And you won't be together in the afterlife
[02:44.70] And you won't be together in the afterlife
[02:48.43] And you won't be together in the afterlife
[02:52.38]
