Walk On Hot Coals Lyrics

Walk On Hot Coals lyrics

Well  I lost my shirt at a card game in which I never had a chance 

Well I
lost my shirt at a card game  in which I  never had a chance 

The deck was
marked, the game was rigged, 

You could not tell at a glance. 



Well,  Lost my job on the weekend and I was back  out on the street 

Well, I lost my job on the weekend and I was back out on the streets 

No way to get a dollar, but I spent it at the roulette wheel 



Well I walk on hot coals, sleep on a bed of nails 

Walk on thin ice,
skate on razor blades 

Got my little girl beside me no matter what else
fails. 



Well I spent it all down at the race track 

All the
way my horsre led the field 

Well I spent it all down at the race track


All the way my horse led the field 

But it was a hoax, the mare
was doped, 

a length to win she fell down on her knees 



Gonna throw away my lucky penny, rabbit's foot and gypsy ring 

Gonna
throw away my lucky penny, rabbit's foot and gypsy ring 

not gonna gamble
on my baby, 

on this loosing streak I might not win 



Well I 
walk on hot coals, sleep on a bed of nails 

Walk on thin ice, skate on
razor blades 

Got my little girl beside me no matter what else fails 



Well I walk on hot coals, sleep on a bed of nails 

Walk on thin
ice, skate on razor blades 

Got my little girl beside me no matter what
else fails
