Playing a Poor Hand Well Lyrics by Midnight North

Under the Lights

0

When did you realize I had such star-gazed eyes
That might be sparkling just for you?
Found out you’re streetwise
Caffeinated and cross eyed
Just trying to see things like you do
Maybe the odds they gave you
Weren't quite enough to save you
They’re all underwater now
Pay up or get out!
Take your money now, take it while you can
Someone else gonna play this hand
Lay it all on the table now
You’ll be playing 'til your cards come out
Take it while it’s thеre, take it while you can
You can’t rеly on no other man
Lay it all on the table now
Well sometimes it’s about playing a poor hand well
Flash flood came through
Emptied up and buried you
Chasing you right out of town
You’re likely gonna lose
And I’m tired of being used
Time to move on while you’re down
Let someone sober worry
About what should be your hurry
They’re all underwater now
Pay up or get out!
Take your money now, take it while you can
Someone else gonna play this hand
Lay it all on the table now
You’ll be playing till your cards come out
Take it while it’s there, take it while you can
You can’t rely on no other man
Lay it all on the table now
Well sometimes it’s about playing a poor hand well
Maybe the odds they gave you
Aren’t quite enough to save you
They’re all underwater now
Pay up or get out
Take your money now, take it while you can
Someone else gonna play this hand
Lay it all on the table now
You’ll be playing till your cards come out
Take it while it’s there, take it while you can
You can’t rely on no other man
Lay it all on the table now
Well sometimes it’s about playing a poor hand well
