1
Danny was an old-time Bourbon Street barker
2
Who wanted the same as Charlie Parker
3
And always cued-up a ball
4
Thinking he was one rack away
5
But even when you run the table
6
The check still seems small
7
When it's your last payday
8
The shallow pocket changer
9
Who always took advantage of strangers
10
Tried to make a five-grand grab
11
With a split second getaway
12
But he forgot that a bag of money
13
Ain't worth much on a slab
14
When it's your last payday
15
That line about luck just can't be bought
16
You're always lucky 'til you get caught
17
Trouble will find you, no need to look
18
And luck won't help when they close the book
19
I know a lot of young fellas in here
20
Especially those on the highest tier
21
Still want to believe
22
That Santa comes in a sleigh
23
They're right about the long white beard
24
But wrong about Christmas Eve
25
What's Christmas, when it's your last payday
