Richie Lyrics

Richie don't bet like that
Richie lose it all like that
Richie make it all right back
Richie can't, won't come back

Now, tell me what it costs
Money kills
Sell his soul for a hundred bills
And when he comes back down
He just wanna get higher
Richie won't let go
Had his fill
Let it cool off, let it chill
'Cause when he come back down
He just feed the fire

Never in all my life
Have I seen a wise fool, oh yeah
Never in all my life, uh
Not until I met you, but don't forget

Richie don't get no rest (oh no)
Richie got demons left (no more)
Feel it all in his chest (oh no)
Richie won't give up yet

Won't tell you what he lost
Never will
Wouldn't stop 'til twenty mill
But when he come back down
He just wanna get higher
No, Richie won't let go
At it still
Falling off for another thrill
And when he come back down
He just feed the fire

Never in all my life
Have I seen a wise fool, oh yeah
Never in all my life, uh
Not until I met you, but don't forget

Richie don't come, come back

I say, I say
You do too much, uh
Talk too much, uh
Gimme too much love
Excuses, excuses
All either us have
Call the dust, uh
For the chelub
Excuses, excuses
