Default Name that tune.

I will give some of the lyrics (spelling awful) to 5 songs every couple of days that are related to gambeling. You guess the the song and I will keep track of who is in first second at third place. At the end the grand prize winner will get absolutly nothing. Sound fun! Here we go.

(1)"Never hit seventeen when you play against the dealer for you know the odds wont ride with you, and never leave your woman alone with friends around to steal her, dreams are gambled and lost like summer wages."
(2)"No I don't believe in luck. No I don't believe in circumstance no more....in a perfect world so I won't believe in luck....precognition in my ear...complications disappear...I never lie. I never cry...Like the magician on the hill I can...."
(3)"Born a natural loser raised on poker and blackjack, dealer gets another 21 two bits is all I ever get. Cards are bound to break me but I aint busted yet. Sing it when your running low."
(4)"Waitting for the break of day. Searching for something to say. Fancy lights against the sky. Giving up I close my eyes. Sitting crossways on the floor....Staring blindly into space getting up to splash my face. Wanting just to stay awake. Wondering how much I can take. Soon I will try to do some more"
(5)"Don't think sorry's easily said, don't cry turn the tables instead. Youve taken lots of chances before but I aint gonna give any more don't ask me. That's how it goes cause part of me knows what your thinking. Don't say words your going to regret. Don't let the fire rush to your head. Ive heard the acusations before, and I gonna take anymore believe me......I can read your mind I am the maker of rules dealing with fools I can cheat you blind and I don't need to see anymore to know that I can read your mind. Looking at you I can read your mind."

(4) is "25 or 6 to 4" by Chicago...I don't think I know any of the others.

btw, what does that title mean exactly?

Apparently lots of people wonder that. This first link seems reasonable:

25 or 6 to 4 meaning

Other theories

Still more
