Seven Days
IÒ‘m a little heavy
Waste boundinÒ‘ down...
Got a zero in the bank
On my account.
ItÒ‘s been a week since sheÒ‘s been home-
ThatÒ‘s seven days of on my own
ThatÒ‘s my number baby,
Gonna lay my money down.
My destination is dependinÒ‘ on the right turn
The right field of dreams.
Well IÒ‘m rollinÒ‘down the highway
PassinÒ‘ on the hard way
BurninÒ‘ gasoline...
IÒ‘m seeinÒ‘ signs up ahead in lights,
Vegas city limit lines.
Tonight IÒ‘m gonna let it ride away.
Well, IÒ‘m puttinÒ‘ down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones.
Come on man, God bless these seven days!
Yeah well I sold my Chevy for a couple hundred bucks
IÒ‘m bettinÒ‘ it all
And IÒ‘m countinÒ‘ on Lady Luck.
Me and destiny have made a deal,
You canÒ‘t shake these nerves of steel.
So come on, fate, letÒ‘s see where we end up.
My temptationÒ‘s already left me with a hand,
I canÒ‘t even see
But IÒ‘m gonna play Ò‘em, IÒ‘m gonna hold Ò‘em.
Like a box-car keep rollinÒ‘,
These cards ainÒ‘t got nothinÒ‘ on me!
IÒ‘m seeinÒ‘ signs up ahead in lights,
Vegas city limit lines.
Tonight IÒ‘m gonna let it ride away.
Well, IÒ‘m puttinÒ‘ down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones.
Come on man, God bless these seven days!
Yeah well IÒ‘m gonna turn this table
Into a one man show
And IÒ‘m stackinÒ‘ up my life
To play on just one roll.
Well sevenÒ‘s my best friend in town
And yes, maÒ‘am, IÒ‘ll have another round
But kiss these dice before I let Ò‘em go!
IÒ‘m seeinÒ‘ signs up ahead in lights,
Vegas city limit lines.
Tonight IÒ‘m gonna let it ride away.
Well, IÒ‘m puttinÒ‘ down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones.
Come on man, God bless these seven days!
IÒ‘m puttinÒ‘ down everything I own,
On the mercy of these bones
Come on man, God bless these seven days!
Oh God bless these seven days.
