The Dealer

(álbum: Valence Street - 1999)

Cards on the table and they facing down
We all got a hand to play, ain't no backing down
Aces up your sleeve, they ain't gonna do you no good
But the joker's still in play and it just might come your way

Listen to me, don't you hear what I say'
Can't you hear what I say, can't you hear what I say?
Listen to me, don't you hear what I say'
We're looking at the Judgment Day

I was holding a 10 of diamonds but I wanted a ace
People all around the world going through changes
Look me straight in my face
Said I just called to show you, some people never satisfied
Wanna trade hands with me little brother
See if you can stay alive?

Listen to me, don't you hear what I say'
Can't you hear what I say, can't you hear what I say?
Listen to me, don't you hear what I say'
We're looking at the judgment day

[?] brothers and sisters
Can they mess 'em around
Pulling the wool over their eyes
But the Dealer, we can't fool 'coz He put the cards into play
And He know what me and you are holding all the time

Listen to me, don't you hear what I say'
Can't you hear what I say, can't you hear what I say?
Listen to me, don't you hear what I say
'Coz we're looking at the Judgment Day coming down
