LYRICS:
I know that the odds
Are ten zillion to one.
And I know I’m trying to do
What simply can’t be done.
I know that I might as well
Just throw this cash away
But if I’m gonna’ live the large life
Well it’s my only way.
CHORUS:
Yeah I know it’s a fool’s bet
But didn’t some fool just win?
Lord, gimme the winnin’ numbers
I swear I’ll never play again
Lord, gimme the winnin’ numbers
I swear I’ll never play again
I know I’m a sucker
But what’ve I got to fear?
After all, it’s just a dollar
And I spend more than that on beer.
True, beer makes me happy
But so would 10 million bucks
So here’s my hard earned money
(Hey, ain’t cha’ gonna’ wish me luck?)
I’d get all the family
Big houses with nice cars
And I’d just keep on workin’
I wouldn’t even quit my job
(yeah, like that’s gonna’ happen!)
Now I see in the paper
The winnin’ numbers were not mine
Man,that really tears it
That was my last time
— spoken —
(What? Next week it’s how much?!)
CHORUS:
Yeah I know it’s a fool’s bet
But didn’t some fool just win?
Lord, gimme the winnin’ numbers
I swear I’ll never play again
Lord, gimme the winnin’ numbers
I swear I’ll never play again
I swear I pinky swear
I’ll never play again
