The Uptown Poker Club - Jerry Reed

Well now bill jackson went to poor ol' dub

To join the uptown poker club

And he cursed the day he ever told anybody he joined

Cause his money used to go like it had wings

When he had queens somebody else had kings

And every night he'd just sit there donatin' all his coins

He said boys now I'm gonna play it right tonight

I'm gonna watch them cards and I'm gonna play 'em tight

And then when I come in there son my hand's gonna be a peach

Well he played 'em tight but after awhile

He done lost his self a considerable pile

So he got mad he stood up and he made this little speech

Now boys you see this razor well I had it sharpened just today

Now I'm coming' in here with my rules that everybody gonna follow when they play

Now you clyde you keep your hands on top of the table

When you're dealing please

Quit takin' them little wild cards and stickin' em down there between your knees

And jesse quit makin' all them funny signs like you tryin' to

Tip off your hand

You better talk to me in american son american so's I can understand

And leroy quit takin' em offa the bottom ooh that's rough

Just take five off the top then stop that's enough

Then pass me them cards son let me cut on them things every time

Before you deal

I like to handle them things boy I like to see

Cause I got news for you lad you ain't playing' this game accordin'

That fella hoyle there

Uh uh no tonight you're playing' this game accordin' to me

Well now a sittin' around the table in that there game

There just happened to be this ol' one-eyed man

And bill kept watching' him out of the corner of his eye

This old one-eyed cat he'd been dealin' kinda funny

He done took a whole bunch of big bill's money

So bill rose up and he looked around the room and with a sigh

He said hmm said it's an awful shame

Said there's somebody cheatin' in this here game

Said of course it ain't gonna do for me to stand up here

And mention the guy

So I'll refrain from calling that party's name

But you let me catch him cheatin' just once again

And I'm gonna take my fist and I'm gonna close that other eye

Now you see this razor well I had it sharpened just today

Now I'm coming' in here with my rules that everybody must follow when they play

Now clyde you keep them bony hands up here on top of the table

When you're dealin' please

Don't go takin' them little wild aces stickin' em off down there between your knees

And jesse cut out makin' all them monkey signs

You still tryin' to tip off your hand

You better talk to me in american big aa so's I can understand

And leroy quit takin' em off the bottom of the deck son

I tell ya that's rough

This is an army game son take five then halt that's enough

Then pass me them face cards over here let me cut them things

Every time before you deal

Cause I like to delve in there son I got to see

Cause I got news for you boys you ain't playing this game accordin' to

That fella hoyle there

Uh uh tonight you're playing' this game accordin' to me

Now then seein' as how you all know

That I didn't ride in here on a head of cabbage

Henry if you'll break out another deck of them bicycles me

And the boys will get on with the business

But keep your eye on that fella wearin' the patch

He holds them cards kinda funny

Ha ha if he ain't careful somebody around this table liable to jack his jaw

Ha ha ha ah son I feel like my luck just changed
