Vegas or Bust!

In Vegas yesterday
Betting on sports for fun
Took Tulane over Pitt I thought I had it won
Up five in the fourth with only seven secs to go
Pitt...had the ball at their ten
The QB heaved downfield
Pass was caught, defenders they collided
Then there was nothing left between that dude and the endzone

And I remember what Jim said to me
That the moneyline would be my end
I remember how Pitt was favored by three
Wish I knew then all the stuff I know now

Against the spread
Should be betting against the spread
I’d have won that game if I’d bet it
Against the spread

As the day rolled slowly past
Still hoped I’d get on a roll
I tried to get back up with a twelve team parlay
I found myself further and further in the hole
So I guess I lost my shirt
Missing oh so many games
Really didn’t think I could get them all wrong
Never worried about savings or selling some stuff I owned
Betting ten CFL games, there aren’t even ten teams
Taking New England and the under
When Brady threw his eighth touchdown pass
The score went “over” for my next blunder

Against the spread
A little action against the spread
I found myself seeking home dogs against the spread

Well slot machine days are past me now
I’ve got so many games to think about
Parlays and teaser cards
Which teams are in, who to leave out

Against the spread
I’m still betting against the spread
I’m wiser now and betting
Against the spread

I’m a miser now and still betting
Against the spread

Against the spread
Against the spread: Still betting
Against the spread: I’m still betting against the spread
Against the spread: Let the Cowboys ride!
Against the spread: Take the points and bet the spread
Against the spread: Jets verses Patriots?
Against the spread: Wouldn't touch that...even against the spread
Against the spread: Terps plus five?
Against the spread: It's a lock against the spread
Against the spread: Central Michigan plus 8?
Against the spread: Bowl's in Detroit so bet them against the spread
