The very first time, yeah
Yeah, redeeming light is on the climb
If you try once and you fail again
Lord, you can always try again
Lord, when the chips is down again,
I know what you've got to floor
It's never too late for a shower of rain
If you try once and you fail, yeah
When the chips is down, yeah
When the chips is down, down, down, yeah,
Now my grandma used to say,
save a little bit for a rainy day
So if you try once and you fail,
When the chips is down, down,
And don't give up, oh, down, down, down,
Things may not be right the very
Everything in your life is on the decline
If you try once and you fail,
Lord, when the chips is down,
eh, I'd rather don't give up, anymore
