Lyrics
'RIDE ON THE RIVER'
As I set forth on this journey, may the Gods of this game continue to bless me with the gifts of good fortune. I ask that you grant me the power to hold my ego at bay in the face of adversity, the strength to choose patience over greed, and a trustworthy gut that knows when to lay down and when to fight. Once that decision is made, I leave my fate in your hands. I have faith that you'll be there to guide me along this ride on the river.
Check Check...Raise Hell Bet call those an-gels...Better know that range well So we meet again, EPT Season 10 Barcelona, first stop...Back in the home of the first flop
When Stevic would get in the record book out of the gate, original champion Not far behind him...star risin...currently king of the cash in Luca...Pagano...Huge bucks...broncos Still no title yet (not yet)...Never know, he might be next
Antonius a day late by the time he got in Started at the bottom, Finnish on the top in Baden I'm thinkin Johnny Lodden's ridin' right there on the brink Of his first EPT win, but what does Johnny think?
Ivey widely regarded as the greatest on the scene Still no number 1, but number 2 in season 3 At chips end by Big Ben the big story was Victory for Vic Coren at Victoria
Season 4 we saw 2 new cities on the tour Expanded that casino, PCA and San Remo Elky earned a new moniker, by the quick way that those chips came Mr. PCA...leading the way...and heyyy...a new nickname
First time in San Remo victory would go to Jay Mercy First time on the live circuit, worthy of that first seed Got it again in a year, way to begin a career The only difference here, now the original high roller title holder, COME ON!
(chorus): Ride on the river...on the river Ridin' high on the river...on the river Live and die on the river...on the river No surprise on the river, you can cry me a river
In Germany, McDonald only 18...years old Maybe grinning silver, but that baby's winnin gold! Nearly got that win again in Dortmund Season 5 Path blocked by a Black Mamba, only she survived
Season 6, make a LIV-ing with the chips Twelve hundred and forty...fell short, except Boeree Super High Rollers, need a hundred K to play Katchalov would go snatch it all in the first at PCA
Monte Carlo, Season 9, Grand Final, Searchin for that first win, was Lodden and Negreanu Mercier and Cody hopin' to pioneer a title pair Smoke finally cleared, only O'Dwyer in that chair
So the jinx lives on, even after 9 years, We've never seen a double, gotta say that's kinda weird Matter of time indeed, it might be seen in Season 10 Sit back, enjoy the ride as that new season begins
(Hook) Ride on the river...on the river Ridin high on the river...on the river Live and die on the river...on the river No surprise on the river, you can cry me a river (repeat)
