Well, you make your way downstairs in the early evening 
In the hopes that this will be your lucky night 
And the bars come up in two's and three's, but never all at once 
And the fruit machines are winning left and right 

And you wipe your rhinestone glasses when they're misty 
Hoping that this bummer's gonna end 
And you're losing pretty heavy, but, ma, no need to worry 
'cause the payoff has to be around the bend 

And it's a nickle here and a nickle there 
And no one gambles harder 
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada 
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair 
With nickles everywhere 

Well, you say the magic words and you pull the handle 
The jackpot comes up every now and then 
And it rolls around the floor there, must be twenty bucks or more there 
So you pick it up and put it back again 

And it's a nickle here and a nickle there 
And no one gambles harder 
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada 
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair 

No, no one gambles harder 
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada 
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair 

No, no, no one gambles harder 
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada 
And Jean Louis of Paris set her hair 

No, no one gambles harder 
Than the Dime Queen of Nevada 
And Jean Louis of Paris...
