From the Broadway Revue "Ballyhoo Of 1932"

Where do we turn, where do we go?
Riddle me this
Who's the mastermind of the puppet show? 
Riddle me this

Whom do we pay? Who's the croupier? 
Riddle me this
Who's the one that sweeps all the stakes away?
Riddle me this

Love a little, sin a little
Play the game and win a little
Only to lose

Listen to the money jingle
Isn't it a funny jingle? 
Ending with blues

What is the song? What is the rhyme? 
Riddle me this
Are there any odds on the wheel of time? 
Riddle me this
