Stateline Blues — текст песни (Stephen Stills)

Fancy Dan, gamblin` man
Top hat of the peanut man
Talk about your pot of gold
With a silver lining

Tumblin` dice, hit it twice
The boats and the flushes they sure look nice
On a pot of gold
With a silver lining
Stateline, give you a hard time
Don`t you stay too long
Goodbye, pretty women I ain`t stayin` on
Come on and...

Get a bunch, bet a bunch
If you come to gamble, better pack a lunch
For a pot of gold
With a silver lining.

The less you bet, stayin` in
The more you lose even when you win
On a pot of gold
With a silver lining

If you don`t know when to stop
Lady Luck she gonna see you`re taught
That there ain`t no pot of gold
And no silver lining

Easy money, come too fast
Come too quick turn a good man bad
On a pot of gold
With a silver lining.
