Well, I stumbled in a bar about a quarter past ten Boots all dusty, hadn't shaved since who-knows-when The sinners drink and the lost unload The beer is warm and the lies run cold There's a jukebox cryin' out some old heartbreak tune Smelled like bad decisions and cheap perfume Sat a slick-dressed fella givin' a grin Said, boy, grab a stool, you look ready to sin He said, sit on down, kid, you look half alive Buddy, that's generous, more like point-five He poured me a beer, ain't no big deal Just the devil unwindin' with a five-dollar meal So we rolled them dice in a dive bar in hell Talkin' 'bout life like we knew it too well He said, heaven sounds boring, man, I agree Too many rules and not enough whiskey We were laughin' too loud, we were feelin' too wise Two fools gettin' drunk under fire in the skies If this is forever, well, it ain't that bad 'Cause the devil's a decent drinkin' buddy I've had He said, tell me your problems, but where to start? Got bills, bad luck, and a semi-broken heart But damn, he's devil, he chose his gig He's like, yeah, and you that haircut, so who's the pig? We were toastin' to chaos, to losin' it all To the highs, to the lows, to the great cosmic brawl You cheatin'? I asked him, he said, I ain't gotta try House always wins, didn't you read the sky? He said, you run wild like you got no chains Yeah, chains don't hold when you love the pain Let the river run, let the cards fall wrong I been bettin' on breakin' since I was young So we rolled them dice in a dive bar in hell Talkin' 'bout life like we knew it too well He said, heaven sounds boring, man, I agree Too many rules and not enough whiskey We were laughin' too loud, we were feelin' too wise Two fools gettin' drunk under fire in the skies If this is forever, well, it ain't that bad 'Cause the devil's a decent drinkin' buddy I've had Now the band took a break, just a fiddle and a cough And somebody's ex was throwin' boots across Hey, lou, you got any life advice? Yeah, don't think twice, just roll them dice That's it? He said, kid, that's the trick Folks think too much and that's what makes them sick Another round? Shoot, why not You payin'? Put it on eternity Now you're talkin'
