There's a finger on the dial,
|
The lucky wheel goes round,
|
Little joker knows he can't escape.
|
The same time every year,
|
The fun fair's back in town,
|
Numbers in the air like ticker tape.
|
|
58, 56, 54,
|
Good angels at my door.
|
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
|
Good angels at my gate.
|
|
Throw a seven down,
|
Place another bet,
|
The joker laughs as the stakes get higher.
|
The gambler and the clown,
|
Without a safety net,
|
Balancing unsteady on a wire.
|
|
58, 56, 54,
|
Good angels at my door.
|
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
|
Good angels at my gate.

59, 58, 57, 56, 55, 54,

Good angels at my door.

63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
|
Good angels at my gate.
