My twenty thrown down in my fist of rage And the man to my left just folded down Well Johnny doubled up with the Royal Flush I had three jacks and a pair of nines My mind is turning just two shots more There's not much left to play Then dude walk in black hat on top, what a mop I'm lucky it wasn't a county cop, cause I'm just running out of time Yeah Who's up for game two, what to do? My wallets getting thin and I just lost my watch last night Well I got a problem, just one answer got to throw it all down And kiss that shit goodbye Yeah That was a crazy game of poker You said I lost it all But someday I'll be back again And I'm never to fall Never to fall Who's up for game three? I can barely see the bourbon drowning next to me SongtexteAnd I just lost it all Well there's a man sitting next to me Red with smiling eyelids It's funny I don't have no money tonight, yeah Yeah That was a crazy game of poker Well I lost it all But someday I'll be back again And I'm never to fall Never to fall No, no, no, no, I'm never to fall, I'm never to fall Bada biba ... (scat) ... I say now skitili dat dat dat well how bout that I'm coming out the front never out the back Well I walked into the bar yesterday Well I had something to do, something to say And Johnny walked in right behind me and I didn't turn around Till I heard that sound of his feet falling On the ground, looked over my shoulder And I saw that clown And I said what are you doing in my bar tonight? Well I said Johnny whatcha doing tonight? He looked at me with a face full of fright And I said how about a revolution? And he said, right I say of, you say a, I say revolution, and you say Jah I say of, you say a, revolution, and you say Jah My god be with me And I said what are you looking at? He hit me across my face with a bat I grabbed my .45 and I said let's get out and go So he opened the door, â??what ya here for?"

Why do we lie now? What do we know? I don't know a damn thing at all For me For me I walk, For me For me I live, For me For me I think, For me But love, For everyone Got five cards, that's what I've been dealt Sometimes I wish I was six feet tall and built But that's not me And the hand that I have is my life and that is what I will do Complain, but not for you And I learn my way of living from playing cards With three wise men You see they taught me, oh yes they taught me a lesson that I'm giving to you And I try to live my life by this very simple rule And this is what they said to me You can lose all your money, lose all your gold You never lose your heart and no one can take your soul That why I'm not going to quit And I'm never going to stop this shit I could not give a shit cause I have the drop You all have eyes, two eyes just like mine But I'm feeling mighty funky, kinda fine Well I drank a bottle of whiskey before I came Down to the bar to see what's the same I saw my man named Johnny sitting across the table from me And to my left was a man he had no, no gin He didn't even think about starting to sin You see the man to my right, he wasn't feeling kind of nice He looked kinda mad and I felt bad Because I took his money last night its mighty funny I'm just struggling I love my honey bunny I don't know what to say anymore Just got to head out the front, front door So I said Johnny what you doing tonight (crowd) He looked at me with a face full of fright (crowd) And I said how bout a revolution (crowd) And he said right I say of, you say a, I say revolution, and you say Jah I say of, you say a, revolution, and you say Jah My god be with me Would you watch over us tonight We don't ask you for much But we could use just a little more in our life Life is crazy I, I see things so hazy Life is amazing Ya'll been so damn good for us tonight Aus Songtexte Mania
