Nazareth - Backroom Boys lyrics
- Artist:
- Nazareth
- Album:
- Sound Elixir
The backroom boys are playin�real hard
There' a lot of money rollin�on the next card
Some are goin�up some are goin�down
Some’ll never make it to the next round
Stone me it don’t come free
You gotta be a winner
If you wanna be a backroom boy
They got--a room full of women
A table full of booze
Gettinâ€?meaner with the dealer--’cause he can’t lose
Someone shouts out,�it' a goddamn shame�BR> The dealer' gettin�meaner with the cocaine
*Stone me it don’t come free
Gotta be a winner
If you wanna be a backroom boy
Can’t stay home get uptown
Get your ear to the ground
If you wanna be a backroom boy
** Up all night, playin�it right
Backroom boys
Look in your eye, never say die
Backroom boys
** The backroom boys are all the same
Even take your money when they play games
Take you when you’re up, kick you when you’re down
You’ll always be a loser in their town
repeat *
repeat **
repeat ***
repeat * (2x)
