When the Game Gets Hot

Always remember what the old man taught

Don't get greedy and you won't get caught

You won't get rich, but you won't get shot

You gotta keep your cool when the game gets hot

Oh, when I play the game, I sometimes cheat

I'll take a little heat occasionally

But I wanna be invited back here next week

So, if I get lucky, hey, I'm everybody's buddy, that's me

Knew what you drew 'fore I dealt you your card

A cold deck, a second, a crimp, or a mark

But I might let you off of the hook even yet

Because I'm sharp enough to know to not to win every bet

Always remember what the old man taught

Don't get greedy and you won't get caught

You won't get rich, but you won't get shot

You gotta keep your cool when the game gets hot

Some of these guys like to splash it around

Talk real tough, big men around town

It'd feel real good just to take 'em down now

But it's better that I let 'em bleed out real slow

Leave the milk, steal the cream

Don't kill the goose, don't skin the sheep

Don't wanna get arrested in Omaha

Don't wanna have my hands broke again in Arkansas

Always remember what the old man taught

Don't get greedy for every pot

You won't get rich, but you won't get shot

You gotta keep your cool when the game gets hot
