Southern Rock. (A breakup song)

The cards are dealt and I’m in again
This one’s where my bad luck ends
With the ante of my weddin’ band,
I’ve been dealt one final hand
I know the odds in the deck of fifty-two
I never figured in the odds of losing you
Odds are ten thousand to one,
You get ‘em straight in a row
Odds are five thousand to one,
Four of a kind and an ace in the hole
Odds are this full house we once had,
We’ll never get back
Odds are this ol’ pair is done
Two to one
I told the dealer to hit me twice
Throw ‘em slow and make ‘em nice
Three sixes, a queen, and a deuce
I guess those sixes should have given me a clue
I know the odds in the deck of fifty-two
Now I know the odds of losing you
REPEAT CHORUS
Bet if I’d won she’d still be around
Bet I’d still have it all if I could keep the card down
REPEAT CHORUS
Two to one
Two to one
Two to one

I like it; even though the card reference has been done before, I don’t think it’s cliche yet.
