You Can’t Beat The House Lyrics – Mark Knopfler

You Can’t Beat The House Lyrics by Mark Knopfler

You can’t fool a fooler
I can tell when a John got jazzed by a Jezebel
You can’t beat the house
You can’t beat the house

Tell the man somebody
You can’t beat the house
When these horn dogs
Get lucky with dough

They’ll blow it on the rooster
And the girls of Smokey Row
You can’t beat the house
You can’t beat the house

Now tell the man somebody
You can’t beat the house
You want to buy you a dance
Don’t buy it in here

It’s all skin games and jelly roll
Red-eye and beer
They’re all as mean as rat snakes
All got knives in their boots

Even the piano player, man,
He don’t care who he shoots
See that little home wrecker
In the backroom

She’ll pick your pocket
With her pet raccoon
You can’t beat the house
You can’t beat the house

Tell the man, somebody
You can’t beat the house
