Who wants to play those eights and aces
Who wants a raise
Who needs a stake
Who wants to take that long shot gamble

Do you know the song?

From AC/DC Sin City:

Diamonds and dust
Poor man last, rich man first
Lambourginis, caviar
Dry martinis, Shangri-la
I got a burning feeling
Deep inside of me
It's yearning
But I'm going to set it free

CHORUS:
I'm going in to sin city
I'm gonna win in sin city
Where the lights are bright
Do the town tonight
I'm gonna win in sin city

([I'm gonna | oh, let me] [rule | roll] you baby)
(Snake eyes)

Ladders and snakes
Ladders give, snakes take
Rich man, poor man, beggarman, thief
Ain't got a hope in hell, that's my belief

Fingers Freddy, Diamond Jim
They're getting ready, [Better get ready,]
look out I'm coming in ['coz I'm coming in]
So spin that wheel, cut that pack
And roll those loaded dice
Bring on the dancing girls
And put the champaign on ice

CHORUS

SO MAYBE<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
The first thing I noticed were all of the faces<o:p></o:p>
All of the faceless beautiful and wasted<o:p></o:p>​
Beggars and whales and everything in between<o:p></o:p>
Sharing their fortunes, living out their dreams<o:p></o:p>
Beautiful and wasted<o:p></o:p>
Pretty young girl sitting by the slot machines<o:p></o:p>
She has a phone to her ear looks like she’s waiting for me<o:p></o:p>
All I got is a few minutes of angry worn-out lust<o:p></o:p>
Says that’s all she needs, that’s all she wants<o:p></o:p>
She’s so maybe<o:p></o:p>
Sweet lady<o:p></o:p>
Beautiful and wasted<o:p></o:p>
I ran away from home to get away from myself<o:p></o:p>
But that jerk in the mirror still don’t get the joke<o:p></o:p>
So I found me a lady, her singular need<o:p></o:p>
Is to make me feel happy, to make me believe<o:p></o:p>
She goes out of her way, lets my vices bleed<o:p></o:p>
My weakness prevail, my desperation ease<o:p></o:p>
You know I ain’t all that bad she ain’t all that good<o:p></o:p>
She is everyone’s maybe, beautiful and wasted<o:p></o:p>
She’s so maybe<o:p></o:p>
Sweet lady<o:p></o:p>
So maybe<o:p></o:p>
Beautiful and wasted
Innocence laughs now, she fooled me again<o:p></o:p>
Made me feel healthy then stole my strength<o:p></o:p>
She said, you only get one chance and the one after that<o:p></o:p>
So let me help you stand up or at least take a stance<o:p></o:p>
You can do what’s right and second guess<o:p></o:p>
Or do what you know because that’s your best<o:p></o:p>
So keep running fool you’ll come back again<o:p></o:p>
And I’ll be here waiting…beautiful and wasted<o:p></o:p>
She’s so maybe<o:p></o:p>
Sweet lady<o:p></o:p>
Beautiful and wasted
<o:p></o:p>
The sun’s coming up I’m barely awake<o:p></o:p>
But I’d rather die now than fall asleep<o:p></o:p>
I’m going to watch her…see how she dishes love<o:p></o:p>
Makes everyone happy, gives everyone hope<o:p></o:p>
She is smiling now, her children and friends<o:p></o:p>
Get so much love, takes all she gives<o:p></o:p>
Her innocence laughs now it fooled me again<o:p></o:p>
We’re all getting older beautiful and wasted<o:p></o:p>
She’s so maybe

put your money where you mouf is... luda

[dice rolling]
[DMX] Grrrrrrrr..

[Chorus 2X: Ludacris] + (DMX)
Bet a hundred (bet a hundred) bet a thousand (BET A STACK)
Bet a million (put yo' money where yo' mouth is)
Bet a hundred (bet a hundred) bet a thousand (BET A STACK)
Bet a million (put yo' money where yo' mouth is)

[Ludacris]
Let it rush through your veins, cause I'ma be the one
to step up and put a hundred thousand dollars on the game
Got a pocket full of change and they C-note stacks
Bustin dominoes, spades, cee-lo, craps
We shootin pool at the Luda-plex; I slap a hundred on the table
just to see if any fools wanna do it next
I got games galore, I got game for sure
And when I win I spit game to whores (yep)
Or double it back, I'll double the stacks
Throw a dub, a big face or double the stack (boy)
And we can 'bout anything that you wanna do
But come up short and OH THE THANGS that the gun'll do
Throw in the towel cause I'm makin 'em sweat
Or put your house on the line and I can cover the bet
So hurry up and come get some, if you want some
You know the phrase - scared money don't make none!

[Chorus]

[Ludacris]
Throw some money on the books, cause I know how to call 'em
Somebody tell my fam I got a gamblin problem
I don't know when to STOP, maybe when somebody's
drug away by the COPS, or when I'm blowin steam
Countin green in the DROP, because whether legal or illegal
all my people bring the strength to the block
Yessir, I thought you knew it, we loco
We'll bet on anything, just to see if anybody's gon' do it
It's people livin they LIFE comin up off change
And hustlers payin they bills comin up off games
Whether it's Madden or it's Live, tell 'em pick up the sticks
They call me Mr. Put-Down-Two-And-Pick-Up-Six
Then walk away with a clean slate; catch me out in A.C.
Callin yo' bluff with Puff eatin cheesecake
So all my ramblers, runners and money scramblers
Put your drinks up to all compulsive gamblers

[Chorus]

[Ludacris]
I'm up in Vegas with a stack of black chips
Breakin the whole casino and doin backflips, man
Cameras eyein us, sidebetters tryin us
The more chips we stack, the more drinks they buyin us
Tryin to get me off my grind, but it won't work
Cause I can drink a fifth of gin and it don't hurt
I'm still breakin 'em, and dice still shakin 'em
I'll step in any place, just ask X what I say to 'em

ace of spades motorhead

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace Of Spades

Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil,
Going with the flow, it's all a game to me,
Seven or Eleven, snake eyes watching you,
Double up or quit, double stake or split, it's
The Ace Of Spades

You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby,
I don't wanna live for ever,
And don't forget the joker!

Pushing up the ante, I know you've got to see me,
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again,
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die,
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be,
The Ace Of Spades

I took my Frito to Tito in the district
Blessed me with some VS somethins I can live with,
Stop frontin
And for the dough I raise,
Gotta get shit appraised
No disrespect to you,
Make sure you word is true
I'm takin wage(r)s down in Vegas
Just in case Tyson have a major night off,
that's clean money . . . the tax write-off

WC: how did you get 1,000 posts, never read a post of yours before. You must post in politics/ soccer, or something mainly ?

Now you swear and kick and beg us
That you're not a gamblin' man
Then you find you're back in Vegas
With a handle in your hand
Your black cards can make you money
So you hide them when you're able
In the land of milk and honey
You must put them on the table

You go back Jack do it again
Wheel turnin' 'round and 'round
You go back Jack do it again

I get urge to go down to my basement room with a needle and spoon (kidding) whenever music comes up. Crank up some Stones, Floyd, Skynyrd, Doors, etc, etc.

Not even a J anymore, for me lately ! Any basher is welcome to burn one with me ( I have smoking room ! ) at GN, been about 6 months since I burned a doobie.No problem, I just grew out of it, sometimes 2+ years without, not a falling off wagon thing, take or leave it.
