Rollin' the Dice Lyrics


Well, I was coolin' my heels down in Flacktown
They was blazin' from a footrace with a hellhound
My heart was up on blocks from my last go-round
When you came roarin' in upon the reboundYou got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me jammin' like ol' Billy on the low ground
You got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me on the reboundYou're like a midnight doctor on a sick call
You're like a big flash flood upon the river
You're like a Salvador Dali on a brick wall
Where the others only talk you deliverYou got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
Ridin' shotgun in a Caddy with the top down
You got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me on the reboundYou got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me jammin' like ol' Billy on the low ground
You got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me on the reboundYou're like an ace high straight with all the chips down
You're like a shot of white lightnin' in a night gown
You're like a wreckin' ball rider on a tear-down

Come a crashin' in my life upon the reboundYou got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me jammin' like ol' Billy on the low ground
You got me rollin' the dice, you got me breakin' 'em twice
You got me on the reboundYou got me on the rebound
You got me rollin' right to you on the rebound

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
