[Intro]
What did you say?
(You have the crabs)
I can’t hear you…
(I’m playing craps)

[Verse 1]
A twist of the tongue
(Words become wrung)
When all’s said and done
(I’m left wonderin’)

[Bridge]
What did you say?
(You have the crabs)
I can’t hear you…
(I’m playing craps)

[Chorus]
The game of Hazard
(Roll, baby, roll)
No logic, haphazard
(Heads will roll)
Roll, baby, roll
(This ain’t a drill)

[Verse 2]
Both sides of the mouth
(It’s spewing out)
All’s lost, none won
(… still left wonderin’)

[Bridge]
What did you say?
(Look like a toad)
I can’t hear you…
(Too heavy a load)

[Chorus]
The game of Hazard
(Roll, baby, roll)
No logic, haphazard
(Heads will roll)
Roll, baby, roll
(This ain’t a drill)

[Outro]
(Roll, baby, roll)
Roll, baby… until…
(This ain’t a drill)

ABOUT THE SONG
The name “craps” is believed to have evolved from the English term “crabs,” which referred to the numbers two and three—instant losing rolls in the game of Hazard, a predecessor to craps. As the game gained popularity in French-speaking regions, “crabs” was phonetically adapted to “crabes” or “craps.” Another theory suggests that “craps” derives from the French word “crapaud,” meaning “toad,” describing the crouched posture of players in early street versions of the game. Over time, these linguistic influences merged, leading to the modern name “craps.”
