I don't wanna bet
But my father wrote a check
That I bet his a**
could never cash
He's bettin' on the eight ball
landin' 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 ahold
of a pool stick I was
gifted from him
My father is a bettin' man
But I got myself a steady hand
He's sittin' in the corner
with a six-pack of Corona
Bettin' that his son'll win again
Go get another six-pack
Bet I make a comeback
I know that this
table's got a lean
Won't you takе me fishin'
And I wanna try out
for the sevеnth grade
football team
You'll probably be nothin'
But this town's old drunkard
And die on a
smoke-stained stool
But right now he's got a
bargain that he's taken too far
On his boy's game of
nine-ball pool
My father was a bettin' man
But I got myself a steady hand
He's sittin' in the corner
with a six-pack of Corona
Bettin' that his son'll win again
My father was a bettin' man
My father was a bettin' man
But I got myself a steady hand
He's sittin' in the corner
with a six-pack of Corona
Bettin' that his son'll win again
I don't wanna bet
But my daddy wrote a check
That I bet his a**
could never cash
He's bettin' on the eight ball
landin' in the side wall
Cold-blooded killer if you ask
