The Allman Brothers Band - Louisiana Lou And Three Card Monty John lyrics

Louisiana Lou and Three Card Monty John
Oh lord, what a natural pair
Looking for a game, fortune and fame
Waitin' just a little farther
Down the road somewhere
Now Three Card Monty is a gamblin' game
Two black aces and a pretty red queen
Keep your eye on the lady
And lay your money down
Watch the fastest hand you've ever seen

Texas Hustlin' Billy
Lord he's on the road again
He was seen in New Orleans the other day
Now Lou is known as quite a man
With a pool cue in his hand
Won't be long 'til him and John
Were headed down that way

Louisiana Lou and Three Card Monty John
Oh lord, what a natural pair


Looking for a game, fortune and fame
Waitin' just a little farther
Down the road somewhere
Now Three Card Monty is a gamblin' game
Two black aces and a pretty red queen
Keep your eye on the lady
And lay your money down
Watch the fastest hand you've ever seen

It was Friday night, lord the time was right
Texas Billy finally made his play
The game went on into the
Night and just about dawn
They were counting Bill's money lord
Headed for LA

Louisiana Lou and Three Card Monty John
Oh lord, what a natural pair
Looking for a game, fortune and fame
Waitin' just a little farther
Down the road somewhere
Now Three Card Monty is a gamblin' game
Two black aces and a pretty red queen
Keep your eye on the lady
And lay your money down
Watch the fastest hand you've ever seen

Waitin' just a little farther
Down the road somewhere
