Took a walk in the rain one day
On the wrong side of the tracks
I stood on the rail till I saw that train
Just to see how my heart would react
Now some people say that you shouldn't tempt fate
And for them I cannot disagree
But I never learned nothing from playing it safe
I say fate should not tempt me
I take my chances
I don't mind working without a net
I take my chances
I take my chances
Every chance I get
I sat alone in the dark one night
Tuning in my remote
Found a preacher who spoke of the light
But there was brimstone in his throat
He'd show me the way according to him
In return for my personal check
I grabbed my channel back to cnn
And I lit another cigarette
I take my chances
Yes forgiveness doesn't come with the debt
I take my chances
I take my chances
Every chance I get
I cross lines of words and wire
And both have cut me deep
I've been frozen out and I've been on fire
And the tears are mine to weep
But I can cry until I laugh
I laugh until I cry
So cut the deck right in half
I'll play from either side
I take my chances
I pay my dollar and I place my bet
I take my chances
I take my chances
Every chance I get
I take my chances
Yeah I don't cling
To remorse or regret
I take my chances
I take my chances
Every chance I get
I take my chances
I take my chances
