The Name Of The Game Is Stud

The Name Of The Game Is Stud

(الألبوم: Ain't That News! - 1965)

Well late last night, in the Kettle of Fish
I was having a glass of beer
When up comes a Rounder by the name of Sam
That lately been seen around here
He gives me a “Howdy” and he buys me a drink
And he calls me by my name
Says some of the boys are just a-waiting upstairs
Would you like to have a Poker game
There were four or five fellas round the table upstairs
The smoke was thick as sin
They took my coat and they pulled up a chair
And they proceeded to deal me in
I started in winning with the very first hand
And I kept on winning for a while
I had money in my pockets and money in my shoes
And money in a great big pile
But it's
Oh Lordy, don't you see
This old Stud Poker be the ruin of me
You got to get ready to shed some blood
When the name of the game is Stud
I kept on winning for an hour or more
And the boys were feeling low
I was looking like a winner n' feeling like a sinner
And I just about had their dough
I caught a pair of aces on the very last hand
And I bet my whole bank-roll
But Sam he had a pair of deuces on the deck
And another deuce in the hole
And it's
Oh Lordy, don't you see
This old Stud Poker be the ruin of me
You got to get ready to shed some blood
When the name of the game is Stud
You know I lost every penny I had in the world
I lost my last red cent
Now my old woman ain't talking to me
And the landlord wants his rent
I know I had it coming and it sure enough did
And I've only got myself to blame
But my fingers keep itching and I keep on twitching
Just to find another Poker game
And it's
Oh Lordy, don't you see
This old Stud Poker be the ruin of me
You got to get ready to shed some blood
When the name of the game is Stud
