Whitesnake

Songwriter: Adrian Vandenberg David Coverdale

You hold all the aces
I never get the chance to deal
Flick of the wrist and you cut me down
I'm spinning like a roulette wheel
You say that love's a gamble
But you play with loaded dice
You hide behind a good girl smile
With a heart stone cold as ice
But I want it, I need it
If you don't give it I'll steal it
I'll take it all and walk away
Lady Luck
You're a loser in the game of love, Sweet Lady Luck
Who you gonna call when it all falls down on you
Sweet Lady Luck
You can't stop your dealing
'Cause it's a crying shame
When the winner takes it all
And never ever takes the blame
But I want it, I need it
If you don't give it I'll steal it
I'll take it all and walk away
Lady Luck
You're a loser in the game of love, Sweet Lady Luck
Who you gonna call when it all falls down on you
Ooh, what you gonna do?
What's that baby, Lady Luck
I need your love, I need it now
I've got to have it anyhow
Sweet Lady Luck
I can't win for losing
It's tearing me apart
So I'll play the joker to your queen
Of broken hearts
But I want it, I need it
If you don't give it I'll steal it
I'll take it all and walk away
Lady Luck
You're a loser in the game of love, Sweet Lady Luck
Spinning like a roulette wheel, Sweet Lady Luck
You're a loser in the game of love, Sweet Lady Luck
I need your love, I need it now
I've got to have it anyhow
Sweet Lady Luck
Sweet Lady Luck
Sweet Lady Luck
Sweet Lady Luck
Lady Luck

Whitesnake are a rock band formed in England in 1978 by David Coverdale, after his departure from his previous band Deep Purple. Their early material has been compared by critics to the blues rock of Deep Purple, but they slowly began moving toward a more commercially accessible rock style. By the turn of the decade, the band’s commercial fortunes changed and they released a string of UK top 10 albums, Ready an' Willing (1980), Come an' Get It (1981), Saints & Sinners (1982) and Slide It In (1984), the last of which was their first to chart in the US and is certified 2x platinum.
