That Was A Crazy Game Of Poker Lyrics

Oh, 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
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

Who's up for game two, what to do?
My wallets getting thin and I just lost my watch last night
Oh, I got a problem, just one answer got to throw it all down
And kiss it goodbye, yeah

That was a crazy game of poker, I lost it all
But someday, I'll be back again
And I, never to fall, never to fall

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 sittin' next to me, red with smilin' eyes
It's funny, I don't have no money tonight, yeah

That was a crazy game of poker, I lost it all
But someday, I'll be back again
And I, never to fall, never to fall

I say, now skitili dat, dat, dat, well, how 'bout that?
I'm coming out the front, never coming out the back
And 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

Until I heard the sound of his feet falling on the ground
I looked over my shoulder and I saw a clown
And I said, whatcha doin' in the bar tonight?

So, I said, Johnny whatcha doin' 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, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah
I say oh, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah

And I said, whatcha looking at?
He hit me across the face with a bat
I grabbed my .45 and I said, let's get out and go

So he opened the door, and said "whatcha here for?"
I said, I'm wanderin' down the road 44
And I said, I've been walking for about a thousand years

And my feet are growing tired, my eyes, a little wired
Don't know what to do, unless I retire
And he just said, let's play some crazy poker

So, I said, Johnny whatcha doin' 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, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah
I say oh, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah

I said, that was the craziest game of poker that I ever saw
I said, that was the craziest game of poker that I ever saw
But I'm not gonna quit and I'm not gonna stop
I don't give a shit 'cause I got the draw

Johnny just got two eyes, just like mine
And I'm feelin' kind of funky, kinda fine
And I drank a bottle of whiskey before I came
Came to the bar to see what's the same
I saw my man named Johnny sittin' across the table from me

And to my left was a man, he had no chin
I didn't really think about starting to sin
The man to my right wasn't feeling kinda nice
He looked kinda mad and I, I felt bad

Because I took his money last night, it's kinda funny
But now I'm just strugglin', I need a honey bunny
I don't know what to say anymore
So I'm just gonna go out

I said, Johnny whatcha doin' 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, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah
I say oh, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah
I say oh, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah
I say oh, you say ah, I say revolution and you say jah
