lyrics

Verse 1:
All the bets have been handled, All the deals have been done
If I lose another dime, Won’t you please hand me my gun
The stakes got high, It was late at night , and I had to play my hand

3 Aces and a pair of Queens,
 trying to make a stand

Chorus:
Far and wide, no end in site
If we don’t leave now, we’ll be buried alive 


Verse 2:
This web’s got me tangled, This web’s got me spun
I’ve been stuck here for 40 years, Or maybe 41
I wagered all the gold I had, 
But he called me on the floor

I went all in, but he had 4 tens and
I was the beggin’ for the door,

Chorus (2 x’s)

All told, Underground stands as a breathtaking work of Americana and the American spirit in 2020, perennially sinking, but always moving forward." ... more
