Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer, The Haden Triplets, Eva Noblezada, Kay Trinidad and Jewelle Blackman - When the Chips are Down

Life ain't easy
Life ain't fair
A girl's gotta fight for her rightful share

What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?
What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?

Help yourself
To hell with the rest
Even the one who loves you best

What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?
What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?

Oh, my aching heart

What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?

Take if you can
Give if you must
Ain't nobody but yourself to trust

What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?
What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?

Aim for the heart
Shoot to kill
If you don't do it then the other one will

What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?
What you gonna do when the chips are down?
Now that the chips are down?

And the first shall be first
And the last shall be last
Cast your eyes to heaven
You get a knife in the back
Nobody's righteous
Nobody's proud
Nobody's innocent
Now that the chips are down

Now that the
Now that the
Now that the
Now that the
Now that the chips are down
