Compared to me, any gambler is just a piker,
I have nothing against that small fry, don’t get me wrong.
Just get me a two way ticket to Monte Carlo,
So I could put the fear of God into their hearts.

I am not interested in hooking up with all their beauties,
As to those wheels,I have to look at them just once...
Those dealers won’t know even what hit them,
While I hop a train and come right back.

I shall come home full of memories and nice impressions,
How I guzzled those coctails and listened to their jazz...
How I played the red and on the black,
Leaving only the gaming tables there behind...

I tell you all this without any bragging,
I have no time to fool around: my time is up;
But for the good of our own government I shall deposit,
All the winnings in our own State Bank.

I bring to light the above well intended facts
All I ask for is the chance and a two way ticket to Monte Carlo.
