Backroom Boys Lyrics - Sound Elixir - Nazareth

The backroom boys are playin real hard 

Theres a lot of money rollin on the next card 

Some are goin up, some are goin down 

Somell never make it to the next round 

Stone me, it dont come free 

You gotta be a winner 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

They got a room full of women, a table full of booze 

Gettin meaner with the dealer cause he cant lose 

Someone shouts out,Its a goddamn shame 

And the dealers gettin meaner with the cocaine 

Stone me, it dont come free 

Gotta be a winner 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Cant stay home, get uptown 

Get your ear to the ground 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Up all night, playin it right 

Backroom boys 

Look in your eye, never say die 

Backroom boys 

The backroom boys are all the same 

Even take your money when they play games 

Take you when youre up, kick you when youre down 

Youll always be a loser in their town 

Stone me, it dont come free 

Gotta be a winner 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Cant stay home, get uptown 

Get your ear to the ground 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Up all night, playin it right 

Backroom boys 

Look in your eye, never say die 

Backroom boys 

The backroom boys are all the same 

Even take your money when they play games 

Take you when youre up, kick you when youre down 

Youll always be a loser in their town 

Stone me, it dont come free 

Gotta be a winner 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Cant stay home, get uptown 

Get your ear to the ground 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Stone me, it dont come free 

Gotta be a winner 

If you wanna be a backroom boy 

Cant stay home, get uptown 

Get your ear to the ground 

If you wanna be a backroom boy
