Why take a chance to gamble, knowing everything could be lost?  Do you realize once it gets a hold on you, it will become your boss?
Why take a chance to gamble, knowing your money is to be used for bills?  Suddenly, you lose everything, now you're thinking about popping pills.
Why take a chance to gamble, dipping into your children college funds?  Now that you owe a mean man a debt; you're hiding and on the run.
Why take a chance to gamble, forgetting you have mouths to feed?  When will you get it into your head, that you really need to take heed?
Why take a chance to gamble, returning home without a dime?  Now you are angry at everyone, and you're about to lose your mind.
