Jackpot - Nikki Lane

Jackpot!

I hit the number

It was always you

I was looking for sevens, they were coming in twos

I was on a bad streak and honey, it was getting me down

Down to my last dime with no good news

I was getting pretty tired of singing the blues

My luck was running dry, was about to leave this town

I’ll give it one more try

I’ll give it one last shot

Put a quarter in the slot

Could it be a jackpot?

Viva Las Vegas

Atlantic City rendezvous

Weekend in Reno late night casino

I’ll go anywhere with you

I should have seen it coming

You were always there

Standing in the corner with a warm, dark stare

I had to move a little closer so I could get a better look

You said, «come on, little darling, we should have our share

Let’s try to roll the dice and run away somewhere»

Didn’t have to say another word

No, that was all it took

I said, «let's go all in»

I’ll give it all I’ve got

Put a quarter in the slot

There it is: jackpot
