That Was A Crazy Game of Poker

My twenty thrown down in my fist of rage
And the man to my left folded down
Well Johnny doubled up with a royal flush
I had three jacks and a pair of nines
My mind is turning just two shots more
There's not much left to play, yeah
Well then dude walks in, black hat on top, what a mop
I'm lucky it wasn't a county cop
Cause i'm just running out of time
Yeah

Who's up for game two, what to do
My wallet's getting thin
And i just lost my watch last night
Well I got a problem
Just one answer
Got to throw it all down
And kiss that sh*t goodbye

That was a crazy game of poker
I lost it all
But someday i'll be back again
And I'm never to fall
Never to fall
No, no, no

Who's up for game three
I can barely see the bourbon drowning next to me
And i just lost it all
Well there's a man sitting next to me
Red with smiling eyes
It's funny, i don't have no money tonight
Yeah, yeah

That was a crazy game of poker
I lost it all
But someday i'll be back again
And I'm never to fall
Never to fall
No, no, no

Well i said now banana-nana baby how bout that?
I'm coming out the front never coming out the back
Well I walked into the bar yesterday
Cause I had something to do, something to say
And Johnny walked in right behind me and I didn't turn around
Til' I heard the sound of his feet falling on the ground
I looked over my shoulder and I saw a clown
And "I said what'cha doin' in the bar tonight?"
Yo, I said

Well I said Johnny whatcha doing tonight?
He looked at me with a face full of fright
And I said, how bout a revolution?
And he said right
I say oh, ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say jah
I say oh, ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say jah
Jehovah

Well I said, what'cha looking at?
And he hit me across my face with a bat
So I grabbed my 45 and I said let's get out and go-oh-oh-oh-oh
So he opened the door, " whatcha here for?"
I said I'm wandering down this road 44
And I said I've been walking
For about a thousand years
Well now my feet are growing tired
My eyes are lookin wired
Don't know what to do unless I retire
He just said "let's play some crazy poker", yeah

Well I said "Johnny whatcha doing tonight?"
He looked at me with a face full of fright
And I said, how bout a revolution?
And he said right
I say oh, ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say jah
I say oh, ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say jah
Jehovah

Aw, what a lovely night we have on our hands
What a beautiful evening we've got on our hands
Well this reminds me
Of this day long ago
When this man left it all behind
In search of a future, in search of a past
He ended up playing a game of cards with 3 wise men
And they told him a lesson that he taught to me, yeah
Well you can lose all ur money, you can lose all ur gold
You can never lose ur heart, you can never lose your soul
That's why I'm not gonna, quit and I'm never gonna stop
I could not give a sh*t because I have the drop
Johnny just got two eyes just like mine
I'm feeling kinda funky, kinda fine
I drank a bottle of whiskey, 'fore I came
Came to the place to see what's the same
I saw my man named Johnny sitting across the table from me
Well to my left there was a man, i said he had no gin
Didn't really think about starting to sin
The man to my right wasn't feeling kinda nice
He musta been kinda mad, I felt bad
Because I took his money last night
It's kinda funny
But now I'm just struggling
I love my honey-bunny
I don't know what to say anymore
So I'm just gonna go out that door
Well I said

Johnny whatcha doing tonight?
He looked at me with a face full of fright
And I said, how about a revolution?
And he said right
I say oh, ya'll say ah
I say revolution, and ya'll say jah
I say oh, ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say jah
I say oh, and ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say jah
I say oh, ya'll say ah
A revolution, and ya'll say
Jehovah, Jehovah, is lookin over me
Jehovah, Jehovah, is living in my heart tonight
That was crazy, I feel crazy, life is amazing
Ya'll been so damn good to us tonight
And I'm lookin for my soul in your eyes every night
