Oh, my, don't the sky look spacious

With the stars all shinin' down

Well, I can hear the night wind howlin'

It's a high and lonesome sound

And I ain't had a woman in so long

I can't feed my starvin soul

Come on, saddle up, boys, we're gonna ride into town

We're gonna get a little out of control



There's a card game in the corner

And the barmaid smiled at me

Well, I tipped her a sliver dollar and

she brought me a drink for free



All the town-folk call her the cheap one

And the gamblers call her Flo

Come on, set 'em up again

I got me a friend and I think I'm gettin' out of control

Oh,oh,oh



She's cool water, her momma taught her

I got news, she's mine and mine alone

And if anybody's lookin' for trouble

You know I'm the one you want to try



Well, I'll fight any man who wants to

And I don't care who or why



You got to gamble on your story

You got no guts, you get no glory

And I'm bettin' my money on an ace in the hole

Think I'm gettin' out of control
