Then we can get something going
In order to win you must be prepared to lose sometime
And leave one or two cards showing.”

“Don't be a baby,
Remember what you told me.
"Shut up and put your money where your mouth is."
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas.
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes, now.
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas.”
