Paroles: Christian Kane. The House Rules. Seven Days.


I'm a little heavy
Waste boundin' down...
Got a zero in the bank
On my account.
It's been a week since she's been home-
That's seven days of on my own
That's my number baby,
Gonna lay my money down.

My destination is dependin' on the right turn
The right field of dreams.
Well I'm rollin' down the highway
Passin' on the hard way
Burnin' gasoline...

I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights,
Vegas city limit lines.
Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away.
Well, I'm puttin' down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones.
Come on man, God bless these seven days!

Yeah well I sold my Chevy for a couple hundred bucks
I'm bettin' it all
And I'm countin' on Lady Luck.
Me and destiny have made a deal,
You can't shake these nerves of steel.
So come on, fate, let's see where we end up.

My temptation's already left me with a hand,
I can't even see
But I'm gonna play 'em, I'm gonna hold 'em.
Like a box-car keep rollin',
These cards ain't got nothin' on me!

I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights,
Vegas city limit lines.
Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away.
Well, I'm puttin' down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones.
Come on man, God bless these seven days!

Yeah well I'm gonna turn this table
Into a one man show
And I'm stackin' up my life
To play on just one roll.
Well seven's my best friend in town
And yes, ma'am, I'll have another round
But kiss these dice before I let 'em go!

I'm seein' signs up ahead in lights,
Vegas city limit lines.
Tonight I'm gonna let it ride away.
Well, I'm puttin' down everything I own
On the mercy of these bones.
Come on man, God bless these seven days!

I'm puttin' down everything I own,
On the mercy of these bones
Come on man, God bless these seven days!

Oh God bless these seven days.
Christian Kane
