On the south side of chicago on
A freezin winter night
In a crowded little bar room
The men were rollin dice
Is winnin by the hundreds
Just rakin it in
When I looked up from the table
Big john lee was walkin in.
Well he grabbed a chair beside me
Said son count me in
He looked over at my winnins
He wore an evil grin
Id heard of hs reputation
A fairly dangerous man
Yea I heard ol big john lee
Would pull is gun whenever he can.
Chorus:
I rolled against john lee
Hes a helluva man
Hes hailed from dallas, texas
And hes known throughout the land.
Now the first hour went slowly
Yea tension buildin up
John lee was drinkin jack black
From a dixie cup
He was rollin double too
Had me in a tight
Here comes johns dice again
Good god! its snake eyes.
Chorus:
I rolled against john lee
Hes a helluva man
Hes hailed from dallas, texas
And hes known throughout the land.
Oh, the night was growin colder
The crowd was wearin thin
John lee put up his savings
Thinkin he was gonna win
His hands were startin to tremble
Money gettin low
Aint gonna let this georgia farm boy
Walk outa here with his dough.
Chorus:
I rolled against john lee
Hes a helluva man
Hes hailed from dallas, texas
And hes known throughout the land.
Molly Hatchet is an American southern rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1975. Founded by Dave Hlubek and Steve Holland, the band's name comes from a prostitute who allegedly mutilated and decapitated her clients. Their music is characterized by heavy guitar riffs, catchy melodies, and lyrics often inspired by Southern US everyday life. Their self-titled debut album (1976) achieved moderate success, but it was with their second album, *Flirtin' with Disaster* (1978), that the band reached international fame thanks to the title track single. Other representative songs include "Gator Country" and "Devil's Canyon". Molly Hatchet has continued to record music to this day, maintaining a loyal fan base worldwide.
