[Verse]
Well I've been a losin' gambler
Just throwin' snake eyes
Love ain't got me downhearted
I know up around the corner lies
My fool's paradise
In just another roll of the dice

[Verse]
All my elevens and sevens
Been comin' up sixes and nines
But since I fell for you, baby
Been comin' on changin' times
They're waitin' over the rise
Just another roll of the dice

[Bridge]
I've stumbled and I know I made my mistakes
But tonight I'm gonna be playin' for all of the stakes

[Verse]
Well, it's never too late, so come on, girl
The tables are waiting
You and me and lady luck
Well tonight, we'll be celebrating
Drinkin' champagne on ice
In just another roll of the dice

[Bridge]
High-rollers lay down your bets and I'll raise 'em
Well I know the odds ain't in my favor

[Verse]
Maybe I'm just a clown throwin' down
Lookin' to come up busted
I'm a thief in the house of love
And I can't be trusted
Well, I'll be makin' my heist
Just another roll of the dice

[Outro]
Just another roll of the dice
Move on up, move on up
Roll me, baby
In this fool's paradise
Just another roll of the dice
Come on, seven
Come on, seven
Roll me, baby
In this fool's heaven
Just another roll of the dice
Move on up, get on up
Roll me, baby
Just another roll of the dice

Bruce Springsteen is a rock ‘n’ roll icon from the great state of New Jersey. Nicknamed “The Boss,” he’s known for spirited sax-powered anthems about working-class people making their way in the world. Backed by the trusty E Street Band, he’s sold more than 120 million records, won numerous awards (including 20 Grammys and an Oscar), sold out stadiums around the globe, and earned a place alongside his teenage heroes in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Although he’s a living legend who ranks among the most important artists in rock history, Springsteen wasn’t an overnight success. Around the time of his first album, 1973’s Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J., he was dismissed as just another “new Dylan"—some scruffy folk singer with a decent vocabulary looking to follow in Bob’s footsteps. In the decade that followed, Springsteen proved himself to be much more.

His breakthrough came with his third album, 1975’s Born to Run. The record hit No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and landed the singer-songwriter on the cover of both Time and Newsweek. Bruce nabbed his first chart-topping album five years later with The River, and in 1984, he went global with Born in the U.S.A., a critical and commercial smash that produced seven Top 10 singles.
