Russian Roulette — текст песни (The Hollies)

Back street dive down in New Orleans
gambler shows his face
The place was full of jacks and queens
but I never came up with that bread-winning ace

Whisky`s cheap at twice the price
when it kills the pain of bad tumbling dice
The scene`s all set for an IOU
Give it one more spin then that`s me I`m through

The wheel`s like a chamber in Russian roulette
I`m takin` a chance and I`m gunnin` for red
The wheel`s like a chamber in Russian roulette
I`m takin` a chance and I`m gunnin` for red

Lost my shirt headed for the bar
Gonna drown my sorrows in a whisky jar
Head hung low because I got beat
I see a hundred dollar bill layin` at my feet

chorus

Headed for the tables I`m wearin` my shades
Got to find me a lucky green top,
can`t be one I`ve played
My hands are shakin` don`t wanna lose my cool
Should I keep the big C or gamble like a fool?

chorus
