lyrics

Come on babe, go and grab your clothes
And darlin, please pack light
We can’t take no heavy load
But don’t you forget your silver and gold

Four o’clock headed down the road
Hour away from the mornin light
My eyes burn and your back is sore
But sit tight child we got a ways to go

So sorry hun
It’s a bad thing I done
Now we got to run

I’ve got a bettin man’s luck
So I send my prayers up above
And I ask forgiveness for
All that I’ve done wrong
A decade of regret
Full of lies and bad bets
There comin to collect on my debts
So I’m gone

A sure thing is all of a lie
Only sure to leave your pockets dry
I’ve been drivin day and night
Headed down south ‘cross seven state lines

So sorry hun
It’s a bad thing I done
Now we got to run

I’ve got a bettin man’s luck
So I send my prayers up above
And I ask forgiveness for
All that I’ve done wrong
A decade of regret
Full of lies and bad bets
There comin to collect on my debts
So I’m gone

Can’t stop
I gamble on and on
Bet it all, ‘til everythin’s gone
I’m a bettin man
And I’ll be a bettin man
‘Til I die

I’ve got a bettin man’s luck
So I send my prayers up above
And I ask forgiveness for
All that I’ve done wrong
A decade of regret
Full of lies and bad bets
They're comin' to settle all my debts
So I’m gone
