Ace Of Spades

(album: Uglier Than They Used Ta Be - 2015)

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
Win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The ace of spades, the ace of spades

Playing for the high one, dancing with the devil
Going with the flow, it's all the game to me
Seven or eleven, snake eyes watching you
Double up or quit, double stake or split
The ace of spades, the ace of spades

You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools
But that's the way I like it baby
I don't wanna live forever
And don't forget the joker!

Pushing up the ante, I know you wanna see me
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be
The ace of spades, the ace of spades
