Dead Man's Hand Lyrics

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 whiteSeven come eleven, you're rolling snake eyes
Every time you roll the dice
There's some good old blood
I'd help if I could
But don't you know my hands are tiedYou 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 nameYou 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 alrightYou got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
You got the dead man's handYou stay on top to get a roll
You never stop till you lose it all
Yeah, you were hot but now you're cold
Watch another one take the fall
You gonna keep on talking
Hoping you can justify
Tell your story when you're walking
'Cause the wishing well is running dryYou 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 timeYou got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
You got the dead man's handYou got your back to the wall
Should you raise or call?
I wouldn't take that chance
You got the dead man's hand
