Bet me your last nickel that the neon shines tonight
|
Bet me on a night like this I will treat you right
|
Now don't tell me your troubles it just ain't worth the time
|
Come here close beside me bet me you'll be mine

Now Leroy was a gambler he sang alto in the choir
|
Took a fall in Acuna Town set his heart on fire
|
So don't tell me your troubles it just ain't worth the time
|
Come here close beside me bet me you'll be mine
|
3)
|
If you got a nickel or a castle on a hill
|
Couldn't buy no sparrow song or one from a whippoorwill
|
So don't tell me your troubles just ain't worth the time
|
Come here close beside me bet me you'll be mine
