It's the prequel to Devil's In The Details! King Dice & The Devil trick Cuphead into gambling away his soul in this intense swing number! Hi-dee-hi-dee-ho!

lyrics

Dice: Ladies n' Gentlemen...aw, heck, who'm I kiddin'. Gentlemen! Now presentin' the one and only King Dice!

(Boo! Boo!)

King Dice: That's me!

(BOOOO! BOOOOO!)

Drunk: Bring out the dames!

King Dice: Heh heh. There'll be plenty o' them in your futures, fellas.

Drunk: Yeah, right!

Dice: Just hear me out, won'tcha?

Listen to me, sinners, one an' all
Lady luck's about pay a call to you
Yeah, boy, it's true.

Just one perfect play, one perfect game
And you'll find yer way to fortune and fame with ease
It's the bee's knees...

It's time to be a winner
It's time to bet it all
There ain't no stoppin' now!
You're on a roll...

Cuphead:
*rolls dice*

HOT DOG!

Dice: ANOTHER JACKPOT! THESE BOYS CAN'T LOSE! Just pardon me a second, fellas.

Dice: Boss...Those Cup Fellas at Table 30're doin' pretty well! Too well...

Devil: Is that so? Then it's about time you learn how the Devil turns high rollers into low swingers. Just follow my lead.

Devil: Well, well! Doin' pretty good, aren't cha boys?

Cuphead/Mugman: And how!

Devil: Care to up the ante?

Mugman: Golly, I think we've earned enough!

Cuphead: I'm allright with stoppin' here.

Devil: Well then, allow me to convince you otherwise.

Just one lucky roll, one lucky play
And you'll take the whole damned place away
So, whaddya say?

Cuphead: The whole place?

KD:

You can live a life of luxury
Never work a day, gay and free of strife...
Now that's the life!

Mugman: But we've already got that...

Cuphead: Go on...

Devil/King Dice:
It's time to be a winner
It's time to bet it all
Be smart and risk your future
On a roll...

Devil: Just remember, if you boys bet it all, you're REALLY gonna bet it all. Including...your souls.

Mugman: WHAT?!

Cuphead: Our...Souls?

Dice:

Hoooo Hi-dee-hi-dee-ho!

You oughta roll them bones if yer feelin' lucky

No scoobadee ba ba ba baaadoh

An' if yer feelin' lucky, go all in

gooo, an' go an' an' go

Dont'cha get cold feet on us, mister cuppy

Knooow, ya knooow, ya know ya know

Devil:
you gotta play to win.

Cuphead: ALL IN...THE BIG BUCKS...YEAH! I'LL DO IT!

Mugman: Golly, Cuphead. No!

*dice roll*

Devil: SNAKE EYES!

Cuphead: Aaaah!
Mugman: Oh no...

Cuphead/Mugman: Please, Mr. Devil! Spare us!

Devil: Heh heh. One more deal, then.

I've got a few debts that need collectin'. Get 'em all, and I may spare you. Now GET OUT!

*punt*

Devil:
And that's how I do it. Yer not so bad yerself.

Dice: Aw, shucks.

Devil:
It's time to be a winner
It's time to take it all
There ain't no stoppin' me
I'm on a roll...
