Tom T. Hall - Deal lyrics
[Tom T. Hall - Deal lyrics]
Days they're just so many decks
Oh, the hours are cards
They deal and you play what you get
Oh, you think of the time that you
Knew you could call so you raised
Oh, you think of the time that you got out
When you should have stayed
Deal, hey may be the next card's an ace
Deal, you ought to go home but you
Know that a flush beats a straight
Oh, you can't have a full house
The Queen has been dealt to a friend
Oh, the good thing about life is they
Shuffle and they deal life again
Well, the cards are all
Stacked when you're hot
And the women are too
Oh, it's a hard cut to take when
You raised every hand but you do
Well, I'm not complainin'
It ain't like a joker to cry
Oh, it won't do to cheat cause you
Have to cash in when you die
So deal, hey may be the next card's an ace
Deal, you ought to go home but you
Know that a flush beats a straight
Oh, you can't have a full house
The Queen has been dealt to a friend
Oh, the good thing about life is they
Shuffle and they deal life again
