Stevie Ray Vaughan – Man with the cards (AI SONG)

======= Man with the cards LYRICS =======
Well he walked in smooth, boots made of sin,
With a crooked little smile and a deck to win.
Slick hands, cold eyes, hat pulled low,
Nobody knew they were in for a show.

He sat down laughin’, said, “Deal me in,”
By the time it was done, he’d stripped ‘em of skin.
Chips hit the table like thunder in the rain,
Every single fool got dragged through the pain.

Ooh, he left ‘em naked—nothin’ but shame,
Took their gold, their pride, even stole their name.
No mercy, no sorrow, no goodbyes spoke,
He vanished in the dust like a barroom joke.

One man cried, “This just ain’t fair!”
But the gambler just smiled, flicked dust in the air.
Another drew steel—too slow to see,
That ace of spades was his eulogy.

Ain’t no tellin’ where he learned those tricks,
But he played ’em like blues on a ‘59 Strat licks.
Queens, kings, hearts all bled,
By the end of the night, every dream was dead.

Yeah, he left ‘em naked—boots in the wind,
Stripped the bar down to regret and gin.
No witness, no trail, no justice spoke,
Just empty pockets and a cloud of smoke.

He don’t bluff, he don’t fold,
He plays like the devil with a hand full of gold.
You can’t read his face, you can’t count his breath,
He deals like fate with a grin of death.

So if you hear that whistle on a midnight breeze,
And your luck feels itchy like a rash with fleas…
Better keep your money, better guard your soul,
‘Cause the man with the cards is back on patrol.

“Don’t bet nothin’ you ain’t ready to lose… especially your skin.”
