Do It Again
[Verse 1]
In the mornin', you go gunnin'
For the man who stole your water
And you fire 'til he's done in
But they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singin'
As they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isn't hangin'
So they put you on the street

[Chorus]
And you go back, Jack, do it again
Wheels turnin' 'round and 'round
Yes, you go back, Jack, do it again

[Verse 2]
When you know she's no high climber
Then you find your only friend
In a room with your two-timer
And you're surely 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

[Chorus]
Yes, you go back, Jack, do it again
Wheels turnin' 'round and 'round
Yes, you go back, Jack, do it again
[Verse 3]
Now you swear and kick and beg us
That you're not a gambling man
But you find you're back in Vegas
With a handle in your hand
Your black cards will make you money
So you hide them when you're able
In this land of milk and honey
You got to put them on the table

[Chorus]
Yes you go back, Jack, do it again
Wheels turnin' 'round and 'round
Yes, you go back, Jack, do it again
