the ballad of johnny vegas - brad goodall lyrics
[verse 1]
losing is a b*tch
but i live for the sting
if i’m winning or i’m losing, man it don’t mean a thing
it all comes from the movies
my love of the game
there’s not an actor in casino i couldn’t name
it’s the lights, it’s the girls
who cares why i do it
it’s the ten grand i won yesterday and instantly blew it
yes i’m better than i was
i know when to quit
but the suckers i look back on never felt this type of sh*t
when you runnin on the street
and they gotta loop ’round
for a moment while i roll up, sittin’ prince of this town
if that’s all i ever get
is that 4*second pride
i’m twice the man you thought i was at st. joseph’s high
[verse 2]
vegas won’t bother
rubbing your back
or comping you the bill after your deadbeat heart attack
i take a paink!ller now
out by the pool
while the sense hotel is checking in some flyover fools
it’s the kansas city schmucks
with their tacky*ass clothes
they’re hikers with their sandals in the lobby wearing robes
i do it with class
or at least i did
i’ve been flying to this city ever since i was a kid
it’s another hot night
and i’m tilted for sure
i’ll be spending all my winnings at the duty*free store
it’s the only life i know
i can never retire
i sat right here in ’08 with david in the choir (go ‘head)
[verse 3 (same as 1)]
losing is a b*tch
but i live for the sting
if i’m winning or i’m losing man it don’t mean a thing
it all comes from the movies
my love of the game
there’s not an actor in casino i couldn’t name
it’s the lights, it’s the girls
who cares why i do it
it’s the ten grand i won yesterday and instantly blew it
yes i’m better than i was
i know when to quit
but the suckers i look back on never felt this type of sh*t
cause when you runnin on the street
and they gotta loop ’round
for a moment while i roll up, sittin’ prince of this town
[different here]
if that’s all i ever get
is that 4*second high
i took my shot, win or lose, it was a h*ll of a ride
