One For The Boys

歌詞

I'm in the big blind With an average stack and an aggressive image The four seat limps right after me never a good sign He's been beating up the table showing down strong cards all night The maniac in the nine throws in another raise he loves to raise Confusing foolishness for courage and swinging on the vine I peek at my cards And decide I'm gonna defend the four seat does the same And we all buckle in for our favorite ride I'm first to act and bet the pot hoping to win it right then and there But the four seat calls and the maniac folds And I'm out of position with a lowly pair of two's The dealer burns and turns It is in this half second where life becomes perfect The mind a weapon Tomorrow's worries and yesterdays mistakes they crumble and fall away For now I'm on the wire I check, the four bets The trap snaps shut as I push my whole stack into the middle He shakes his head to let me know He doesn't have those dreaded pocket eights And sighs, "I have to call" The river comes that sexy, sexy Ace of spades And all is well in the world Now you wanna take a good man down? Send him back to his wallet to steam off another five hundred Well you just wink and show him threes up
