Jerry Reed When You're Hot You're Hot lyrics
Son well now me and Homer Jones and Big John Talley
Had a big crap game goin' back in the alley
And I kept rollin' them sevens and winnin' all them pots
My luck was so good I could do no wrong
I just kept on rollin' and controllin' them bones
Fin'lly they just threw up their hands and said
When you're hot you're hot I said yeah
When you're hot you're hot
And when you're not you're not
Put all the money in and let's roll 'em again
When you're hot you're hot
(La la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
When you're hot you're hot)
Well now every time I rolled 'em dice I'd win
And I was just gettin' ready to roll 'em again
When I heard somethin' behind me I turned around
And there was a big ole cop
He said hello boy then he gave us a grin
Said looks like I'm gonna have to haul you all in
And keep all that money for evidence I said well son
When you're hot you're hot
He said yeah when you're hot you're hot
And when you're not you're not
You can 'splain it all down at city hall
I said yeah when you're hot you're hot
(La la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
When you're hot you're hot)
Well when he took us into court I couldn't believe my eyes
The judge was a fishin' buddy that I recognized
I said hey judge old buddy old pal
I'll pay you that hundred I owe you if you get me out of this spot
So he gave my friend a little fine to pay
He turned around and grinned at me and said
Ninety days Jerry when you're hot you're hot
And I said thanks a lot
When you're hot you're hot
And when you're not you're not
You let my friends go free and throwed the book at me
He said well when you're hot you're hot
I said well I tell you one thing judge old buddy old pal
If you wasn't wearin' that black robe I'd take you out back of this courthouse
And I'd try a little bit of you on my own you understand that you hillbilly
Who's gonna collect my welfare pay for my Cadillac
Whadda ya mean contempt of court
Judge oh judge
