Lucky Too - Bob Neuwirth

It was Christmas in Las Vegas, when the locals take the town

Theresa hit a streak and laid her waitress' apron down

She’d been playin' penny poker over at the ol' Gold Spike

She won at Texas Hold’em, and again at Let It Ride

Over on Fremont Street, six bits won her a car

So she rode it up the Strip where the flashy hotels are

First she hit a royal -- not a dirty one this time

Then she drew four deuces -- and then five wilds

Hundred dollar «Homerun» -- three coin «Red, White and Blue»

«Double Jackpots» -- «Double Diamonds» -- (both progressives, too)

Five buck «Black and Gold», five times in a row

«Blazing Sevens» seven times, so the story goes

She even hit «Big Bertha» -- five grand for just one coin

She placed it on a parlay -- took the Cowboys and the points

She had the 'Niners and the «over» -- the «under» and the Jets

She took the whole college schedule and she won every bet

She picked the six in Powerball -- she called the Super Bowl

She even had the Triple Crown — win, place, and show

At baccarat and blackjack, she could not seem to lose

At French roulette she pressed her bet, four times on 32

She held the dice forever -- at least it seemed that way

She won a million dollars and then she walked away

It was Christmas in Las Vegas, when the locals take the town

Theresa hit a streak and laid her waitress' apron down

In her room after New Years at the Thunderbird Hotel

On the back of a winning keno card they found this living will

My friends get all my money -- may they always have enough

To my enemies I leave my luck -- only maybe not quite so tough

The dealers get my «bones» -- may they keep 'em on a roll

The Devil’s had my body, now may the Good Lord take my soul

So do not try to find me, for I will not be found

I’m gonna keep this stake alive -- I’m headed out of town

It was Christmas time in Vegas, when the locals take the town

Theresa hit that streak, and laid her waitress' apron down
