About

A sequel to a Gambler Song from the 1980s

Lyrics

Chorus

He dealt a hand in the middle of a storm

Yeah he dealt a hand to keep us warm

Found him waiting by the track

The Gambler's finally coming back

The Gambler's finally coming back

Verse 1

Midnight wheels hum low

Coast to coast through the heavy white snow

Used to be the best man alive on this long ride

Hiding aces where the pride used to reside

Pre-Chorus

Watch the deck

Watch the man

Wait for the play

Chorus

He dealt a hand in the middle of a storm

Yeah he dealt a hand to keep us warm

Found him waiting by the track

The Gambler's finally coming back

The Gambler's finally coming back

Post-Chorus

He knows the ways

He knows the days

He knows the truth

Verse 2

Straight out of D.C. heading West

Steel and iron put a weary heart to the test

Nobody knows what he keeps hidden in his sleeve

Giving us a reason to still believe

Pre-Chorus

Read the eyes

Read the grin

Risk everything again

Chorus

He dealt a hand in the middle of a storm

Yeah he dealt a hand to keep us warm

Found him waiting by the track

The Gambler's finally coming back

The Gambler's finally coming back

Bridge

Folding was never an option tonight

Winning is the only way to make things right

The stakes got higher

The man became a flyer

The hand became a prayer

Chorus

He dealt a hand in the middle of a storm

Yeah he dealt a hand to keep us warm

Found him waiting by the track

The Gambler's finally coming back

The Gambler's finally coming back
