lirik lagu the special consensus - rounder's spirit
as a boy i’d sneak to town and see the rounders
and i’d watch as they lay their money down
fascination filled my head, by the hands as can be read
it’s all in their eyes, it’s plain to see
he said to me
well the play of a rounder’s life, it overtook me
with desire that burned like fire within my soul
so i set to leave my home
my mama cried from deep~down low
‘it’s a devil’s game ya long to play, nothin’ comes free’
she said to me
in the town i searched and found the nearest barroom
and i prayed as they dealt those cards around
for one hand that i could win
and have enough to play again
this last request is all i ask, dear lord help me
i pray to thee
those years are gone, for now i’ve grown and i’m much older
i settled down with a wife to raise a family
but she can see it in my eyes, the rounder’s spirit never dies
i leave tonight when she sleeps tight, so tenderly
