Lyrics A Million To One - The Five Satins

A Million To One

A million to one
The odds were against me
What could anyone do
When the chances at you
Were a million to one
A shot in the dark
Is all I can show, dear
Is it a tear and a sigh
The old college try
But it couldn’t be done
I knew I’d never come out ahead
I should have quit but instead
I kept on playing (playing, playing, playing) just for fun
A million to one
Now I’ve learned my lesson
Never gamble again
When the chances to win
Were a million to one
A million to one
