When The Game Gets Hot - Corb Lund Lyrics
When The Game Gets Hot
Don't get greedy and you won't get caught (for every pot)
You won't get rich, but you won't get shot
You gotta keep your cool when the game gets hot
When I play the game, I sometimes cheat
I'll take a little heat occasionally
But I wanna be invited back here next week
So, if I get lucky, hey, I'm everybody's buddy, that's me
A cold deck, a second, a crimp or a mark
But I might let you off of the hook even yet
Because I'm sharp enough to know to not to win every bet
Always remember what the old man taught
Don't get greedy and you won't get caught (for every pot)
You won't get rich, but you won't get shot
You gotta keep your cool when the game gets hot
Some of these guys like to splash it around
Talk real tough, big men around town
It'd feel real good just to take 'em down now
But it's better that I let 'em bleed out real slow
Leave the milk, steal the cream
Don't kill the goose, don't skin the sheep
Don't wanna get arrested in Omaha
Don't have my hands broke again in Arkansas
Always remember what the old man taught
Don't get greedy and you won't get caught (for every pot)
You won't get rich, but you won't get shot
You gotta keep your cool when the game gets hot
