Deal

by G-Rob

Since it costs a lot to win, and even more to lose,
You and me bound to spend some time wondrin what to choose.
Goes to show, you dont ever know,
Watch each card you play and play it slow,
Wait until that deal come round,
Dont you let that deal go down, no, no.

I been gamblin hereabouts for ten good solid years,
If I told you all that went down it would burn off both of your ears.
Goes to show you dont ever know
Watch each card you play and play it slow,
Wait until that deal come round,
Dont you let that deal go down, no, no.

I've been pretty bummed about the whole poker thing of late. Clearly we all are given the lack of posts. There is a sudden dearth of poker here as if a single bust sucked an entire scene into non-existence.

Obvously, people still play, but the stakes have changed. They are at once higher and lower.

Anyway, I'm working on a better post, but in the meantime here's another favorite tune..


If I had a gun for every ace I have drawn,
I could arm a town the size of abilene
Dont you push me baby,
Cause Im all alone and you know Im only in it for the gold

All that I am asking for is ten gold dollars
And I could pay you back with one good hand
You can look around about the wide world over
And youll never find another honest man.

Last fair deal in the country,
Sweet suzie, last fair deal in the town
Put your gold money where your love is baby,
Before you let my deal go down

Dont you push me baby, cause Im all alone
Well I know a little something you wont ever know
Dont you touch hard liquor, just a cup of cold coffee
Im gonna get up in the morning and go

Everybody prayin and drinkin that wine
I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines
Come to daddy on the inside straight,
Well I got no chance of losin this time

Last fair deal in the country,
Last fair deal in the town
Put your gold money where your love is baby,
Before you let my deal go down

Everybody prayin and drinkin that wine
I can tell the queen of diamonds by the way she shines
Come to daddy on the inside straight,
Well I got no chance of losin this time.

1st things 1st, I need a name, "Spinner" sounds right but a bit too "obvious" ... how about "Twister", yeah, that's it, I'm now "twister". FEAR THE TWISTER!! That sounds VERY dangerous, I like it!
On to more topical conversation, poker in greenville county = more gamble than bad blood's prop bets. So sorry to hear about local problems, hope good games survive bad breaks.
I'm missing the G-Vegas scene occasionally - so much so that I've put together a game here in Hickory NC just so I can feel "at home". I leave you all with an open invite to come drive 2 hrs and enjoy a game of poker in what reminds me of an old place in Mauldin you may remember. If only I could find Natalie to bring me my drinks and rub that tight shirt across my back again... sigh.

Just like Crazy Otto
Just like Wolfman Jack
Sittin' plush with a royal flush
Aces back to back

In the thick of the evening
when the dealing got rough
She was too pat to open and
too cool to bluff
As I picked up my matches and
was closing the door
I had one of those flashes:
I'd been there before--
been there before.

Truckin - like the doodah man
once told me you got to play your hand
sometime - the cards ain't worth a dime
if you don't lay them down

Just a quick note of thanks for the JGB and Dead lyrics....... You have a great blog

Posted by: Stewart at September 27, 2007 12:14 PM

Sweet, had to turn on the song and sing along.

Now I get to listen to the Dead all night.

......................................
So you're saying you're going to do better than those lyrics????

Can't wait !

Oh yeah, almost forgot.....

11) My friends to the south think they're funny feckers.
&
12) I wish we were all in Key West right now !

Only 988 to go..........

Thanks for the Grateful Dead lyrics!!!

The wolf came in, I got my cards, we sat down for a game.
I cut my deck to the queen of spades, but the cards were all the same.
Dont murder me, I beg of you, dont murder me. please, dont murder me.

Dire wolf to keep the list going.
