Beatin` The Odds — текст песни (molly hatchet)

Well she grabbed me and asked me,

If I had a name,

She told me she was interested to see,

If I could play the game,

She said her name was victory,

She didn`t want to know the rules,

That`s just the way I wanted to play,

In a game designed for fools.



Chorus:

We were beatin` the odds, we were beatin` the odds,

We were beatin` the odds again,

We were gambling with our souls,

We were playing to win,

We were beatin` the odds again.



Well I rolled the dice feelin` cold as ice,

And Victory drew the cards,

We knew that loosin` when the stakes were high,

Could really hit us hard,

I strapped into the drivers seat,

With Miss Victory by my side,

She knew at a glance she was takin` a chance,

By coming along for the ride.



Chorus:

We were beatin` the odds, we were beatin` the odds,

We were beatin` the odds again,

We were gambling with our souls,

We were playing to win,

We were beatin` the odds again.



Time and space stood still that day,

With Victory`s soul and mine,

We were running a race between heaven and hell,

And we could not find the finish line,

And when it was all over we won it in the end,

We were splittin` the prize when she opened her eyes,

And said Baby let`s try it again.



Chorus:

We were beatin` the odds, we were beatin` the odds,

We were beatin` the odds again,

We were gambling with our souls,

We were playing to win,

We were beatin` the odds again.



Chorus:

We were beatin` the odds, we were beatin` the odds,

We were beatin` the odds again,

We were gambling with our souls,

We were playing to win,

We were beatin` the odds again.
