I Take My Chances Meaning

[[Verse 1]
I took a walk in the rain one day
On the wrong side of the tracks
I stood on the rails till I saw that train
Just to see how my heart would react
Now some people say that you shouldn’t tempt fate
And for them I cannot disagree
But I never learned nothing from playing it safe
I say fate should not tempt me

[Chorus]
I take my chances
I don’t mind working without a net
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get

[Verse 2]
I sat alone in the dark one night
Tuning in by remote
I found a preacher who spoke of the light
But there was brimstone in his throat
He’d show me the way according to him
In return for my personal check
I flipped my channel back to CNN
And I lit another cigarette
, [Chorus]
I take my chances
Yes, forgiveness doesn’t come with a debt
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get

[Verse 3]
I’ve crossed lines with words and wire
And both have cut me deep
I’ve been frozen out and I’ve been on fire
And the tears are mine to weep
But I can cry until I laugh
Or laugh until I cry
So cut the deck right in half
I’ll play from either side

[Chorus]
I take my chances
I pay my dollar and I place my bet
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get

[Chorus]
I take my chances
Yeah, I don’t cling to remorse or regret
I take my chances
I take my chances every chance I get
I’ll take my chances
I’ll take my chances]
