I don't wanna bet, but my father wrote a check that I bet his ass could never cash 00:15

He's bettin' on the eight-ball landin' in the side wall, cold-blooded killer if you asked 00:22

But every night he needs me to land himself a red-three, corner pocket at 12 a.m. 00:29

Only twelve years old, but I got ahold of a pool stick I was gifted from him 00:36

My father is a bettin' man 00:42

But I got myself a steady hand 00:45

He's sittin' in the corner with a six-pack of Corona 00:49

Bettin' that his son 'll win again 00:52

00:56

Go bet another six-pack 01:12

Bet I make comeback 01:13

Count on that this table's got a lean 01:15

Won't you to takе me fishin', and I wanna try out for the sevеnth-grade football team 01:19

He'll probably be nothin', but this town's old drunkard 'nd die on a smoke-stained stool 01:26

Right now he's got a bargain that he's taken too far on his boys game of nine-ball pool 01:33

My father was a bettin' man 01:39

But I got myself a steady hand 01:43

He's sittin' in the corner with a six-pack of Corona 01:46

Bettin' that his son 'll win again 01:49

My father was a bettin' man 01:53

01:57

My father was a bettin' man 02:15

But I got myself a steady hand 02:18

He's sittin' in the corner with a six-pack of Corona 02:22

Bettin' that his son 'll win again 02:25

I don't wanna bet, but my daddy wrote a check that I bet his ass could never cash 02:30

He's bettin' on the eight-ball landin' in the side wall, cold-blooded killer if you asked 02:38

[English]

I don't wanna bet, but my father wrote a check that I bet his ass could never cash

He's bettin' on the eight-ball landin' in the side wall, cold-blooded killer if you asked

But every night he needs me to land himself a red-three, corner pocket at 12 a.m.

Only twelve years old, but I got ahold of a pool stick I was gifted from him

My father is a bettin' man

But I got myself a steady hand

He's sittin' in the corner with a six-pack of Corona

Bettin' that his son 'll win again

...

Go bet another six-pack

Bet I make comeback

Count on that this table's got a lean

Won't you to takе me fishin', and I wanna try out for the sevеnth-grade football team

He'll probably be nothin', but this town's old drunkard 'nd die on a smoke-stained stool

Right now he's got a bargain that he's taken too far on his boys game of nine-ball pool

My father was a bettin' man

But I got myself a steady hand

He's sittin' in the corner with a six-pack of Corona

Bettin' that his son 'll win again

My father was a bettin' man

...

My father was a bettin' man

But I got myself a steady hand

He's sittin' in the corner with a six-pack of Corona

Bettin' that his son 'll win again

I don't wanna bet, but my daddy wrote a check that I bet his ass could never cash

He's bettin' on the eight-ball landin' in the side wall, cold-blooded killer if you asked
