John Landry - Set Em Up lyrics

Artist: John Landry

album: Changing Man


I rolled dice with the Devil
Played him for a fool last night
And Lady Luck woke up beside me
But she can only stay a while
And my conscience is tellin' me "boy,
Better get out while you can"
Cash in your chips, trade 'em in
And don't play another hand
Well I've gambled on the river
A time or two it's left me dry
And I've left many a woman
With a teardrop in her eye
And I know I have it comin'
But before I lay this body down
I'll settle up with the Devil
And we'll play another round
I laid it all down in Atlanta
Been double-crossed in New Orleans
I rode the ponies in Kentucky
The roughest ride they've ever seen
Stared down the snake-eyes of Sin City
A long-legged railbird at my side
And when I'm down to my last dime
Set 'em up and let it ride
Set 'em up boy
I doubled down in Monte Carlo
Left me shaken but not stirred
I bet the limit down in Reno
Lord when will I ever learn
I got busted down on Fifth Street
With nobody at my side
When you're down to your last dime
Set 'em up and let it ride
Yes when I'm down to my last dime
Set 'em up and let it ride
Set 'em up and I let it ride, ride, ride
Set 'em up and I'll let it ride
