Song
[Intro] (palm muted)
Em D G C x2
Verse 1
I don't wanna bet but my father wrote a check that I bet his ass could never cash
He's betting on the eight ball landing in the side wall, cold blooded killer if you ask
But every night he needs me to land himself a red three corner pocket at 12 am
Only twelve years old but I got a hold of a pool stick I was gifted from him
Chorus
My father is a betting man
But I got myself a steady hand
He's sitting in the corner with a six pack of Corona
Betting that his son will win again
Em D G C x2
Verse 2
Go bet another six-pack, bet I make a comeback
I know that this table's got a lean
Won't you takе me fishing and I wanna try out for the sevеnth grade football team
You'll probably be nothing but this town's old drunkard and die on a smoke stained stool
Right now he's got a bargain that he's taken too far on his boy's game of nine-ball pool
Chorus
My father was a betting man
But I got myself a steady hand
He's sitting in the corner with a six pack of Corona
Betting that his son will win again
My father was a betting man
Em D G C x2
