VERSE #1
Playing Texas Hold’em well
Is tough, even for the gifted
But when the cards are dealt
And the corners lifted
You’re hopin’ for a pair of aces.
CHORUS:
Man I love that rock and roll,
Fast cars and pretty faces.
But I call out to God at the very sight
Of a pair of pocket aces.
VERSE #2
I was glad my room was comped
The cards, they weren’t showin’ me love.
Yes I was getting stomped
Then my eyes caught sight of
A gorgeous pair of pocket aces.
CHORUS:
Man I love that rock and roll,
Fast cars and pretty faces.
But I call out to God at the very sight
Of a pair of pocket aces.
VERSE #3
Cancer made my lover ill
She fought, but the illness took her.
But in my life was still
Our fine son and daughter
They trump out any pocket aces.
CHORUS:
Man I love that rock and roll,
Fast cars and pretty faces.
But I call out to God at the very sight
Of a pair of pocket aces.
The End.
