Lyrics:
Going For Broke

I'm going, going for broke
The world can't stop this confident bloke
Got my chips stacked on the line
Yes I'm in, all in this time
Got nothing to hold 'cept this warm drink and my smokes
So, I'm going, I'm going, going for broke

I'll swing, swing for the fence
I'm down to five dollars and 48 cents
But, this time it's my deal
And this wager is for real
Got no cards up my sleeve in my defense, oh
So I'll swing, I'll swing, swing for the fence

I know I have a winning hand
Tomorrow I'll be a rich, rich man
With gold lining my pockets
Flying high like Haley's comet

I know this time's the one
When my winning streak's begun
My life will on be a silver platter
Where none of my old losing self will matter

It'll be all she wrote
Time to go pick out a fancy boat
Yes, this move could be fatal
But it's all there on the table
I'm gonna give it just one more final go

Yes, this is the real deal, it ain't no joke
I'm going for broke
I'm going for broke
