17 to 1
Learn them numbers quick
They're the best odds we will get

I know suspicions have
Finally been aroused
A fate so simple that
Ain't no way I'm turnin' back

Trouble came cheap
But left expensive
Trouble came home
Ain't apprehensive

Now here's the drill'
Here's the thick
You haven't heard the last of it
Sharp as tacks
They're all we get
You better learn them numbers quick

I sold out short
I sold out fast
Chained to my youth
High horse of my past

And for what I got
I must admit
It wasn't worth the half of it
To hesitate, is to lost your way
And I've seen lost for years
I'm afraid

Wanna swing from you
Wanna swing
Wanna swing from you
Wanna swing

I held the door
While trouble crawled
Past our iced
And down the hall
I held the door
When it came back
