Lyrics

I never thought I'd need you but now I found I'm wrong Come on back sweet mama back where you belong I've gambled all over town find that I can't win So come on back and pick me up again
Now if I lose let me lose I don't care how much I lose If I lose a hundred dollars while I'm trying to win a dime My baby she's got money all the time
Of all the other gals I know no one can take your place Cause when I get into a jam they just ain't in the race So now that you're back dear let's take another round With you here by my side dear the deal just can't go down
