You rolled into town, ridin' high You found glory, you found your life You lead the shouts and called the shots But your claim to victory quickly came up short You were a charlatagne, a liar in their eyes You took their lives and you played to win The angry mob finally tracked you down They left you bleeding, broken to the ground You played a hunch and you came up short You stalked the ace, but it left you dry You ran a race which held no end Your royal flush crumbles in your eyes You were a city hawk, but they clipped your wings They left you to die in the still of night Does your blood run cold, can you feel the pain They got your number, they lived your past You're running once again Your luck it will not last You played a hunch and you came up short You stalked the ace, but it left you dry You ran a race which held no end Your royal flush crumbles in your eyes Another day, another night The same people wear different faces You know the times, you know them by heart Your game will end before it can start You set the stage, they pay the price You will go on until the shadows come You played a hunch and you came up short You stalked the ace, but it left you dry You ran a race which held no end Your royal flush crumbles
