Lyrics

[00:06.89] Sometimes I feel confident
[00:09.51] like I'm in control,
[00:11.42] Rolling out in Vegas
[00:13.77] And landing every roll.
[00:15.96] But lately I ain't winning
[00:18.17] It's snake eyes every time,
[00:20.72] I'm losing and I'm down
[00:22.30] to my last dime.
[00:24.14]
[00:25.03] Now every day I hope and pray
[00:27.56] to make it through one more,
[00:29.67] As the winter wind rushes in
[00:32.17] And chills me to the core.
[00:34.48] I've lost so much that nothing
[00:36.23] is all I've got to lose,
[00:40.18] It's one day till tomorrow
[00:42.28] And one step ahead of the blues.
[00:45.39]
[01:04.05] Don't tell me that I'll be alright
[01:06.25] That's something you don't know,
[01:08.20] Or tell me not to be uptight
[01:10.51] Or not to let it show.
[01:12.76] My confidence is sliding
[01:14.76] This I know is true,
[01:17.51] I'm barely just one step
[01:19.42] Ahead of the blues.
[01:21.07]
[01:21.35] Now every day I hope and pray
[01:24.41] To make it through one more,
[01:26.56] As the winter wind rushes in
[01:28.51] And chills me to the core.
[01:30.97] I've lost so much that nothing
[01:33.10] Is all I've got to lose,
[01:36.71] It's one day till tomorrow
[01:38.81] And one step ahead of the blues.
[01:42.32]
[01:59.42] Now every day I hope and pray
[02:02.63] To make it through one more,
[02:04.69] As the winter wind rushes in
[02:06.85] and chills me to the core.
[02:09.21] I've lost so much that nothing
[02:11.11] Is all I've got to lose,
[02:14.75] It's one day till tomorrow
[02:16.71] And one step ahead of the blues.
[02:20.19] It's one day till tomorrow
[02:22.30] And one step ahead of the blues.
