American Aquarium – Betting Man lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I drank myself to sleep again
Drank myself to sleep again last night
And I woke up in a stranger's arms
I woke up with a stranger's arms holdin' me tight
I thought of you and me
And what it is we used to be
[Chorus]
And if I was a betting man
I'd throw everything I had on you
But I ain't a betting man
God only knows I'm a betting man
[Refrain]
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
[Verse 2]
Those words you said, they cut me deep like a lock blade knife
They cut me to the bone
You can only cut a man so deep
'Fore he's gonna wash his hands
I wash my hands of you and me
And what it is we used to be
[Chorus]
And if I was a betting man
I'd throw everything I had on you
But I ain't a betting man
God only knows I'm a betting man
[Refrain]
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
Well I drank myself to sleep again
Drank myself to sleep again last night
And I woke up in a stranger's arms
I woke up with a stranger's arms holdin' me tight
I thought of you and me
And what it is we used to be
[Chorus]
And if I was a betting man
I'd throw everything I had on you
But I ain't a betting man
God only knows I'm a betting man
[Refrain]
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
[Verse 2]
Those words you said, they cut me deep like a lock blade knife
They cut me to the bone
You can only cut a man so deep
'Fore he's gonna wash his hands
I wash my hands of you and me
And what it is we used to be
[Chorus]
And if I was a betting man
I'd throw everything I had on you
But I ain't a betting man
God only knows I'm a betting man
[Refrain]
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
You were running through my mind like a steamboat
On a Mississippi riverbed
