With nothing around to lead him astray
A house and a car, safe places to play
A roof overhead when the sky's turning gray
Measuring life with the bills he can pay
He’s a self made man that’s all he can say
Ask and
he’ll show you what makes him that way
With the wheels and the deals, the gifts of parlay
Rolled into dough he can wager and weigh
Keeping the dogs of misfortune at bay
Only the best is considered okay
And just being good won’t do it today
Ask and
he’ll show you what makes him that way
