You can keep on pushing

But I know you’re never gonna fight

You better keep on looking

Cause it’s written down in black and white



Seven come eleven you’re rolling snake eyes

Every time you rill the dice

There’s some good old blood

I’d help if I could

But don’t you know my hands are tied



You got your back to the wall

Should you raise or call

I wouldn’t take that chance

You got the dead man’s hand



The light in the tunnel is gonna be a rumbling train

Loaded full of trouble

The next stop has got your name



You got a one-way ticket on a dead end track

You take it on down the line

Before you knew what hit ya

You were flat on your back

But you thought that you were doing alright



You got your back to the wall

Should you raise or call

I wouldn’t take that chance

You got the dead man’s hand



You stay on top, to get a roll

You never stop, till you lose it all

Yeah you was hot, But now you’re cold

Watch another one take the fall



You gonna deep on talking

Hoping you can justify

Tell your story when you’re walking

Cause the wishing well is running dry



You getting highs and lows

And the lady knows you’re playing for your life

You’re a dead man holding aces and eights

And your luck’s fun out this time

You got your back to the wall

Should you raise or call

I wouldn’t take that chance

You got the dead man’s hand



You got your back to the wall

Should you raise or call

I wouldn’t take that chance

You got the dead man’s hand
