lirik lagu bill morrissey - gambler's blues
[verse 1: bill morrissey]
jack of diamonds slipped between two tens
he said, “hide me, boys, ’til the season ends
i’ve been sharecropping for the ace, king, queen
and toward the end the game turned mean
the one game in town and i’m bound to lose
and i just can’t shake these gambler’s blues”
[verse 2: bill morrissey]
miss downtown got her hair all wet
she got caught by the storm, now she’s so upset
and she dries herself by the kitchen sink
as she quietly counts up everyone’s drinks
and she can’t control what she can’t refuse
this one last shelter from the gambler’s blues
[bridge: bill morrissey & ellis paul, bill morrissey]
ah, the gambler’s blues coming ’round the curve
leave you with nothing but your broken nerves
you listen to the fire as you shovel in coal
stick your head out the window, see the drive wheels roll
[verse 3: bill morrissey]
st. louis knows that he can’t survive
with a broken h~rn and a rico five
still he walks this bar with his head held high
and he honks and hollers ’til the well runs dry
and the jack of diamonds had to give him the news
there ain’t no good notes in the gambler’s blues
[verse 4: bill morrissey]
then smoke fills the room ’cause the wood’s too green
that’s what you get when you buy from the ace, king, queen
and there’s not much light, there’s not much heat
but you learn to like how it smells so sweet
and when you count your change here, you count by twos
but you’ll never buy off these gambler’s blues
[bridge: bill morrissey & ellis paul, bill morrissey]
ah, the gambler’s blues coming ’round the curve
leave you with nothing but your broken nerves
you listen to the fire as you shovel in the coal
stick your head out the window, see the drive wheels roll
[verse 5: bill morrissey]
jack of diamonds jumps out from the tens
he says, “we’ll never know how this story ends
but you can tell old bill when he comes home
that the ace, king, queen took miss downtown home
left him nothing but her old tattoos
and a roadmap of these gambler’s blues”
