He's on the green baize sunglasses on Ace in the hole he's just twenty-one He's cashing out as the next hand begins He's got enough just to get by All in a night's work all that he knows The cigarette smoke still in his clothes He looks so delighted counting the bills More than enough just to get by Some people do it for the hell of it And some are in it to win And some people lose everything they got Just to do it all over again They say you can not buy a thrill But you can get in a pill Any colour you like Red, black and blue dynamite Gonna take you on a wild ride And sometimes money can kill Money can kill Head honcho grabs me and says with a grin Boy in the end know the house always wins I'll set it up you just be there on time Ain't gonna wait till we run dry They say you can not buy a thrill But you can get in a pill Any colour you like Red, black and blue dynamite Gonna take you on a wild ride (Take you on a wild ride) I'm in my car parked fifth street and high Inside that dive bar the game of his life Saturday-night-special cool to the touch No he won't be cashing out tonight They say you can not buy a thrill But you can get in a pill Any colour you like Red, black and blue dynamite Gonna take you on a wild, wild ride Money can kill Money can kill Red, black and blue dynamite Gonna take you on a wild, wild ride Take you on a wild ride And sometimes money can kill
