The Dumbest Game

© 2011 by Eric Dahl

You look beat down taking it hard
Hoping it changes on the very next card
Deuce or double, it’s all the same.
I might not play the smartest hand
But I win sometimes because I understand
How to find that table with the dumbest game.

Was a time I said I’ll take the world
Line up the drinks, bring me the girl,
Give me the front page. I need the fame.
Kept coming back getting hit in the head
Till the father of one of my best friends said,
“Son, you better find the dumbest game.”

I lost time and I lost good money
Lost some friends but you know it’s funny
I won it back in the dumbest game.
I might not play the smartest hand
But I win sometimes because I understand
How to find that table with the dumbest game.
