I came to Reno for a quickie divorce...
And while waiting in line there, I bet on a horse
I put two dollars down on a filly named Devine...
But I lost again... it happens every time!

My problem with women is, they wanna settle down
But when I see a pretty girl, I just wanna play around
I gotta stop this marriage bit - they take every dime
The house - the car and bank account - it happens every time!

It happens every time, and I get in a bind
When I let a lovely lady, overrule my mind
Perhaps that's where they coined the phrase, "Love is blind"
I just fall right in again - it happens every time.

But when all is said and done - even life's a gamble...
I had no luck with cards, and tried the roulette ramble
Lost a lot on slots, walked away and heard the bells chime...
Oops... I just missed the jackpot... it happens every time!
