lyrics

He said I’m getting a little slower son maybe I’m somewhat past my prime
But I’ve forgotten things you don’t yet know & I’ve stood the charge of time
You can sit back, take a number & wait before the gate
Or you can step right up to that sentry bell & give it a damn good shake


Let the bones roll let the cards fall
Ain’t no use in fighting them all
Pick the ground you stand upon
Libere su Corazon


There’s two types of man you’ll come upon on this steady rollin’ ball
There’s the man who gives the best he’s got & there’s the man who wants it all
Tread lightly in your dreams my friend they say the future is foretold
Well I’m going down to the toll-road tonight & let the devil take my soul

Let the bones roll let the cards fall

Yeah we know what evil lurks in the hearts of men
We can watch it unfold nightly on 7, 9 & 10
From the bent cops, shock jocks, priests & corporate whores
Where you can’t tell left from right & the middle ain’t there at all

Let the bones roll let the cards fall
