The House Always Wins Lyrics


Once I loved a woman
Once we shared a name
But the tide pulled us under
And now we can't get up againWell I wish someone had told me
You're gonna sink before you swim
You may take a couple of rounds
But the house always winsI thought our love would last forever
We would raise a family
But the cards were dealt against us
It was never meant to beWhen love walks out and leaves you
Loneliness steps in
You make take a couple of rounds
But the house always wins
Whoa oh yeahWhen I sat down at the table
I was a younger man
I thought I had the whole world
Wrapped up in my handsI wish someone had told me
You're gonna pay for all your sins

You can take a couple of rounds
You can take a couple of rounds
You may take a couple of rounds
But the house whoh oh the house always wins

William Bell was one of the finest of the Stax/Volt soul artists. Like Otis Redding, he was able to tell a story with great sincerity and flawless musicality. His song "You Don't Miss Your Water ('Til Your Well Runs Dry)" is a Memphis masterpiece.
