listen hereIn the morning you go gunning
for the man who stole your water.
And you fire 'till he is done in,
but they catch you at the border.
And the mourners are all singing
as they drag you by your feet.
But the Hangman isn't hanging,
and they put you on the street.
You go back, Jack,
do it again.
Wheel turning 'round and 'round.
You go back, Jack,
do it again.
When you know she's no high climber,
then you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer,
and you're sure you're near the end
Then you love a little wild one,
and she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know she's smilin',
you'll be on your knees tomorrow
You go back, Jack,
do it again.
Wheel turning 'round and 'round.
You go back, Jack,
do it again.

Now you swear and kick and beg us
that you're not a gamblin' man;
Then you'll find you're back in Vegas
with a handle in your hand
Your black cards can bring you money
so you hide them when you're able
In the land of milk and honey
you must put them on the table
You go back, Jack,
do it again.
Wheel turning 'round and 'round.
You go back, Jack,
do it again
