[ti:.38 Special]
[ar:Mark Knopfler]
[al:Tracker (Deluxe Version)]
[00:15.300] The fate of a roving gambler
[00:18.480]
[00:19.120] Is waiting down the bloodthirsty highway
[00:22.420]
[00:23.220] The highway is my home
[00:25.080] I'm a rambler
[00:26.640] And I have to pay the devil every day
[00:29.890]
[00:30.490] Now if I should owe a friend a million dollars
[00:33.920]
[00:34.860] He knows my guarantee is sound
[00:37.390]
[00:38.660] If we should get hijacked by robbers
[00:42.080] There'd be no big money laying all around
[00:44.940]
[00:46.710] I may be gone to the devil
[00:49.220]
[00:50.170] But I ain't rollin' over for you
[00:52.890]
[00:53.970] If you've got a pistol in your pocket
[00:57.260] I've got my .38 Special too
[01:00.920]
[01:16.300] Are you dancing for the payers of the piper
[01:20.320] Are you jumping through
[01:21.610] your party hoops for them
[01:23.320]
[01:24.240] You won't see any nine to fivers
[01:27.750] At the tables of my poker playing friends
[01:30.820]
[01:31.570] So take your politician or your banker
[01:34.610]
[01:35.840] Take your friendly health insurance man
[01:38.210]
[01:39.490] I never met a cold hearted gambler
[01:42.700]
[01:43.310] Could carry off a hustle like they can
[01:46.190]
[01:47.590] I may be gone to the devil
[01:50.110]
[01:51.230] But I ain't rollin' over for you
[01:53.760]
[01:55.040] If you've got a pistol in your pocket
[01:58.270] I've got my .38 Special too
[02:02.110]
