Rack em Up — текст песни (Jonny Lang)

Written by bruce mccabe

Performed by jonny lang

From the album lie to me





I used to hang out, down at jacks pool hall

You go down there, dont do nothin at all

You wanted to play some cards there was a game in the back

You wanted to shoot of somethin, you went and talked to jack

If you had a little money you was a grade a fool

There was a guy down there who used to shoot a little pool



Rack em up

Rack em up

Rack em up

Rack em up



Till the day he was dead,

That all they ever said was rack em up

He didnt own a tv set, he didnt own no car

He ate whatever jack was makin back behind the bar

They said he had a wife but, she left him in tears

He hadnt been home once in twenty-five years



Rack em up

Rack em up



They come from all over thinkin they were pretty hot

They put the money on the table, wanna play the best we got

Nine in the corner, five in the side

Take a hundred dollar bill and just, let it ride

Id tell him, "listen hear sonny, there aint no disaster

There aint no shame in bein beaten by a master"



Rack em up

Rack em up

Yea, rack em up

Rack em up, rack em up



Til the day he was gone, they said it all day long rack em up
