Ain't no saints
only sinners
and ones who won't admit
they've got shadows for days dark as soot
He walked in he was counting
he played like he was king
all his cards were on the table and no one knew
he took me to this place
I don't recall the name
or how the hell we got here to play this game
So I began to wager
at first I couldn't lose
then I felt the room was shaking and I couldn't move
He wrapped his arm around me
he asked me to sign my name
he said have another whiskey
and his eyes were flames
"You were brought down here to give me all of your pain
Eternal damnation and suffering
You remember what I gave you?
a place to be?
Now I took you down, like we agreed."
I said "you've run out of luck, beaten to the punch.
I've already been taken my whole life"
The whiskey took it's toll
I'm not giving up my soul
so I pretended I was god and got on my feet
then I told him who I was
too drunk to play at cards
and I'll be back next week to take him down
"You were brought down here to give me all of your pain
eternal damnation and suffering
you remember what I gave you?
a place to be?
and I'll be back next week" to take him down
