She left one Friday mornin'
Disappeared without a warnin'
Not a soul has seen her since that Thursday afternoon
Her Mom fought hard at tryin'
To not break down from cryin'
But she couldn't hold it back when the Sheriff broke the news
(chorus)
She was caught up in a danger puttin' forth a wager
Chatting with some strangers on her laptop screen
She rolled the dice and paid the price
Momma cries out "Jesus Christ"
Why'd you take my baby and then set the bad ones free
His doctor said it's cancer
I wish I had the answers
There's not much I can do that will make it go away
Spent his final months denyin'
While inside he was dyin'
Finally took his final breath six months to that very day
(chorus)
He was caught up in a danger puttin' forth a wager
Smoking like a gambler plays the Roulette wheel
He rolled the dice and paid the price
His wife cries out "Jesus Christ"
Why'd you take my soulmate when you could have had him healed
(bridge)
The good Lord is our maker
Our giver and our taker
Who blessed us with our right to choose our own destiny
She tried to earn a dollar
While standing on a corner
Promising she'd give it up once she was on her feet
A couple weekends later
They read it in the paper
Now friends all gather 'round her as they watch her final sleep
(chorus)
She was caught up in a danger puttin' forth a wager
Selling what God gave her until he took it back
She rolled the dice and paid the price
Her friends cry out "Jesus Christ"
Why'd you take this angel was she really all that bad
When they rolled the dice and paid the price
