The Dealer (Down And Losin') Songtext / Lyric

[(B Ruzicka)]



Jack of diamonds, queen of spades

Fingers tremble and the memory fades

And it's a foolish man, who tries to bluff the dealer

Jokers laughed and lady luck smiled

The aces were high and the deuces were wild

When you're down and losin', everyone's a cheater






Chorus

You can't win and you can't break even

You can't get out of the game

You shouldn't stay but you ain't leavin'

'Cos your luck may change again



Just when things were going fine

Someone jumped you from behind

When you're down and losin', everyone's a cheater



Chorus



Jack of diamonds, queen of spades

Fingers tremble and the memory fades

When you're down and losin', everyone's a cheater

Well, the jokers laughed and lady luck smiled

The aces were high and the deuces were wild

And it's a foolish man, who tries to bluff the dealer
