Lyrics

It's a long long way down to Reno, Nevada It's a long long way to your home And the change in your pocket, it's beginning to grumble And you reap just about what you sow You can walk down the street, press your face in a window Or go on fooling around You can work night and day and take a chance on promotion Or fall through a hole in the ground Now there ain't no game like the game that you're playing When you've got a little something to lose And there ain't no time like the time that you're wasting And you waste just about what you choose There's a man at the table, you know he's been able To return all the odds that you lay But you can't feed your hunger, and you ain't gettin younger And your tongue, it's got nothing to say And it's a long long way down to Reno, Nevada It's a long long way to your home And the ground underneath you is beginning to tremble And the sky up above you has grown There's a time to be moving, a time to be groovin A time to climb up the wall But the odds they double, and it ain't worth the trouble And you never goin nowhere alone And it's a long long way down to Reno, Nevada And it's a long long way to your home And the ground underneath you is beginning to tremble And the sky up above you has grown There's a man at the table, you know he's been able To return all the odds that you lay But you can't feed your hunger, and you ain't gettin younger And your tongue, it's got nothing to say
