Lyrics
v1
thoughts went cold turkey and left me for dead
toe tappin' demons playing taps in my head
wrong headed appetites like snakes in the grass
fueling my veins with their own special
i pawned my soul for 3 drinks and a prayer
if jesus dont want you the devil's right there
one night it hit me or was it the booze
winners are people who got nothing to lose
chorus
at the beggarman's ball is the best game in town
the beggarman's ball all the lost there get found
a place for fallen angels easily crowned
the beggarman's ball is where the devil gets down
v2
rich men go cruising for paupers and theives
slapping fat wallets slapping fat knees
big cars and millionaires kicking up dirt
selling their potions on the street where it hurts
i got a secret that could trump all their lies
empty their bank accounts bring tears to their eyes
money is good for a whole lotta things
but i never buy nothing that the beggarman brings
chorus
at the beggarman's ball is the best game in town
the beggarman's ball all the lost there get found
a place for fallen angels easily crowned
the beggarman's ball is where the devil gets down
Bridge
bottle and needle i thought were my friends
blinded devotion the devil did send
once i was broke but my breaks on the mend
i opened that locked door
everything paid for runs out in the end
chorus
at the beggarman's ball is the best game in town
the beggarman's ball all the lost there get found
a place for fallen angels easily crowned
the beggarman's ball is where the devil gets down
chorus
at the beggarman's ball
the beggarman, beggarman
the beggarman's ball
