Well me and Homer Jones and Big
John Talley
Had a big crap game goin' back in
the alley
And I kept rollin' them sevens
 , winnin' all them pots
My luck was so
good I could do no wrong
I jest kept on rollin'
and controllin' them bones
And finally they
jest threw up their hands and said
"When you
hot, you 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
them 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 old
cop
He said "Hello, boys" and then he gave us
a grin 'n' said
"Look like I'm gonna hafta
haul you all in
And keep all that money for
evidence"
I said, "Well, son when you hot, you
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 say, yeah, when you're hot, 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 inta 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 ya that hundred I owe ya if you'll get me
outta this spot"
So he gave my friends a
little fine to pay
He turned around and
grinned at me and said
"Ninety days, Jerry,
when you hot, you hot"
'n' I said "Thanks a
lot"

When you're hot, you're hot
And
when you're not, you're not
He 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'll tell ya one thing judge, old buddy, old
pal"
"If you wasn't wearin' that black robe I'd
take out in back of this courthouse
>>>>"And
I'd try a little bit of your honor on"
"You
understand that, you hillbilly?"
"Who gonna
collect my welfare?"
(When you're hot, you're
hot")
"Pay for my Cadillac?"
Whadda you
mean 'contempt of court'?"
(When you're hot,
you're hot")
"Judge"
