lirik lagu matthew barber & jill barber – summer wages
[chorus 1]
never hit seventeen when you play against the dealer
cause you know that the odds won’t ride with you
never leave your woman alone when your friends are out to steal her
she might be gambled and gone like summer wages
[verse 1]
then we’ll keep rolling on till we get to vancouver
cause the lady that i love she’s living there
and it’s been six long months or more since i’ve seen her
she might be gambled and gone like summer wages
[chorus 2]
in all the beer parlours all down the long mainstreet
the dreams of the season are spilled down on the floor
big stands of timber lay there just for falling
the hookers standing watchfully waiting by the door
[verse 2]
so i work on a tour bus with my slippery city shoes
though i swore i would never do that again
through the great fall down straits where the sea stand awaiting
i’ll be far down and gone like summer wages
[chorus 2]
in all the beer parlours all down the long mainstreet
the dreams of the season are spilled down on the floor
big stands of timber lay there just for falling
the hookers standing watchfully waiting by the door
[chorus 1]
never hit seventeen when you play against the dealer
cause you know that the odds won’t ride with you
never leave your woman alone when your friends are out to steal her
she might be gambled and gone like summer wages
and the year’s a gamble and lost like summer wages
