Well, you make your way downstairs in the early evening
In the hopes that this will be your lucky night
And the bars come up in two's and three's, but never all at once

And the fruit machines are winning left and right

And you wipe your rhinestone glasses when they're misty

Hoping that this bummer's gonna end
And you're losing pretty heavy, but, ma, no need to worry
'cause the payoff has to be around the bend


And it's a nickle here and a nickle there
And no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair
With nickles everywhere


Well, you say the magic words and you pull the handle
The jackpot comes up every now and then

And it roles around the floor there, must be twenty bucks or more there
So you pick it up and put it back again


And it's a nickle here and a nickle there
And no one gambles harder
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair

No, no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair


No, no, no one gambles harder
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair


No, no one gambles harder
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris...
