Words & Music – Rand Anderson

I was never much of a gambling man
Now I’m going for broke ‘bout as fast as I can
not really sure when my luck turned bad
Took the underdog every chance I had 

Its a long shot
Gotta hit the jackpot
When you’re hot you’re hot
Better put everything you got
On the long shot

When the risk is hi the reward is great
There’s a little trick pony that’s 1 in 8
She’s always the last one out of the gate
Swinging for the fence on the inside straight

Its a long shot
Gotta hit the jackpot
When you’re hot you’re hot
Better put everything you got
On the long shot

Now Theres only way to win my pearl
26 to 5 gonna play the whirl
Boxcar bones and a pair of snake eyes
But that Acey Ducey done come twice

Its a long shot
Gotta hit the jackpot
When you’re hot you’re hot
Better put everything you got
On the long shot

All the holy rollers sitting hi and low 
I got rag, puppy, jolly win, place, and show
I Keep putting my money into the machine
Pray to god they all line up green

Its a long shot
Gotta hit the jackpot
When you’re hot you’re hot 
Better put everything you got
On the long shot

When you’re not you’re not
Gonna lose everything you got
On the long shot

When you’re hot you’re hot
Better put everything you got
On the long shot
