Lyrics Albert Hammond

Albert Hammond

Dime Queen of Nevada

Well, you make your way downstairs in the early evening

In the hopes that this will be your lucky night

And the bars come up in two's and three's, but never all at once

And the fruit machines are winning left and right

And you wipe your rhinestone glasses when they're misty

Hoping that this bummer's gonna end

And you're losing pretty heavy, but, ma, no need to worry

'cause the payoff has to be around the bend

And it's a nickle here and a nickle there

And no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair

With nickles everywhere

Well, you say the magic words and you pull the handle

The jackpot comes up every now and then

And it roles around the floor there, must be twenty bucks or more there

So you pick it up and put it back again

And it's a nickle here and a nickle there

And no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair

No, no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair

No, no, no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair

No, no one gambles harder

Than the Dime Queen of Nevada

And Jean Louis of Paris
