When You're Hot You're Hot Lyrics

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 just kept on rollin'
and controllin' them bones
And finally they just 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 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 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"
And 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?"
