Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Well, I’m down at the bar, with a drink in my hand,
Sitting next to a woman who knows every gambling man,
She’s got fire in her eyes, and a smile that could burn,
But she’s a wild card, a lesson not learned.
(Chorus)
Fast women and whiskey, they play with my mind,
While the gambling men, they leave me behind,
In this smoky haze, I can’t see what’s real,
But the blues got me down, with no way to heal.
(Verse 2)
There’s a poker game in the back, where the stakes are high,
And the cards are dealt, beneath the neon sky,
The dealer’s got a grin, and the gambler’s got his tell,
But I’ve seen too much, and got a story to sell.
(Chorus)
Fast women and whiskey, they play with my mind,
While the gambling men, they leave me behind,
In this smoky haze, I can’t see what’s real,
But the blues got me down, with no way to heal.
(Bridge)
I’ve been chasing those thrills, but they leave me cold,
The fast life ain’t what it seems, or so I’m told,
The bottle keeps calling, and the night never ends,
Caught in a cycle, with no way to amend.
(Verse 3)
Now the woman by my side, she’s a dangerous game,
With a taste for the wild, and a heart that can’t be tamed,
game,
With a taste for the wild, and a heart that can’t be tamed,
She’s got me wrapped around her finger like a chain,
But I’m just a lost soul, in a dance of pleasure and pain.
(Chorus)
Fast women and whiskey, they play with my mind,
While the gambling men, they leave me behind,
In this smoky haze, I can’t see what’s real,
But the blues got me down, and I can’t seem to heal.
(Outro)
So I’ll raise a glass to the nights I’ve known,
To the fast women and whiskey, that won’t leave me alone,
In the darkness of the bar, where the shadows creep,
I’ll sing this blues song, as the night takes me deep.
