Lyrics CROOKED DICE - Tennessee Ernie Ford, Betty Hutton

CROOKED DICE

Hey I’m gentleman
But I can take it 'bout as long as long can last and then
I’ll take it on the chin
Mud is handy only when it comes to slingin' it
Oh 'cause you ain’t playing nice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
Oh 'cause you ain’t playing nice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
Hey all you fakir men
Get me when I’m goin' get me while I’m comin' in
I need not to pretend
But it’s handy when I have to treat ya like a friend
Oh 'cause you ain’t playing nice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
Oh 'cause you ain’t playing nice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
Hey all you gamblin' souls
Ya play the horses and ya put me through your rigmarole
But I can feel you sinking low
And in fact you’ve fallen right in your own pigeonhole
Oh 'cause you ain’t playing nice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
Oh 'cause you ain’t playing nice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice (yeah)
Crooked dice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice
You’ve been rolling crooked dice (yeah)
You’ve been rolling crooked dice (yeah yeah yeah ooh)
You’ve been rolling crooked dice (rolling crooked dice)
You’ve been rolling crooked dice (rolling rolling)
You’ve been rolling crooked dice (rolling rolling yeah)
