Текст U.D.O. – Devil’s Dice

Jesus Christ was born like me in a stable
His mom and dad did all that they were able
How did they know which way he’d turn
Didn’t want to get their fingers burned

I see myself swinging in the gentle breeze
Remembering girls and the way they teased
Mama and papa saying this I tell
We loved you boy but you’re going to hell

Roll the devil’s dice — no second chance
Roll the devil’s dice — I did the dead-man’s dance
I did the dead-man’s dance

Ever since nine I was juvenile
Stealing from pa — did petty crime
Officer said for me no hope
The only good thing for you’s a rope
Left me danging high and dry
They picked my bones and the crows took flight

I see myself swinging in the gentle breeze
Remembering girls and the way they teased
Mama and papa saying this I tell
We loved you boy but you’re going to hell

Roll the devil’s dice — my turn to cast
Roll the devil’s dice — and I got the six
Roll the devil’s dice — all three of them
Roll the devil’s dice — roll the devil’s dice

So here I am on judgement day with angels
The Lord Jesus is reckoning the tables
He said I know you, didn’t take you long

Roll the devil’s dice — no second chance
Roll the devil’s dice — I did the dead-man’s dance
Roll the devil’s dice — my turn to cast
Roll the devil’s dice — roll the devil’s dice
I did the dead-man’s dance
