That's what you'll hear Dean Martin singing when you make a Big Win on his Wild Party slot machine. Some people won't wager a quarter in a slot while others prefer to put in a quarter and take out a million. The point is that you have to be in it to win it. And so this week I was treated to Dean's crooning when I had the biggest of big wins: I won $90 on a 30 cent bet. Was it fun? You bet and a lot more fun than Dawn Powell (good name, no relation) in her novel "The Wicked Pavilion" expects from "The Friendly loan agent, the Smiling Banker and the Laughing Financial Aid Counsellor". The casino is not only fun but as I've said here before, totally honest.
Here's the full libretto of Dean's Song:
How lucky can one guy be,
I kissed you and you kissed me.
And just like the fellow said,
Ain't that a kick in the head.
Yes, a metaphorical, musical kick is to be preferred to a literal, below the belt kick from Wall Street and the Banking industry.
