Three Armed, Poker-Playin' River Rat |
In the summertime in 1861 |
And I was livin' near to Cairo town |
Only 20 years old when I stepped aboard the River Queen |
Well a man walked up in a shiny blue suit |
He said «Son you wanna play some cards?» |
It was the three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans |
Well we sat down to play a little game of Black Jack |
And the folks how they gathered round |
And then he started to deal so fast my head commenced to spin |
In one hand he had a drink |
In one hand he had a smoke |
In one hand he had a royal flush |
Dirty three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans |
La la la, La la la na |
La la la, La la la na |
You know I played ‘til I was broke |
Then I upped and walked away |
To have a talk with a gal I’d found |
For to get some sympathy for way the stranger treated me |
Well he walked up as bold as brass |
Put two arms around her waist |
And with the other hand he knocked me down |
I hate the three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans |
La la la, La la la na |
And now morning has come to rolling River Queen |
Where the gamblin' man slept last night |
Folks say he fell overboard, and was washed out to sea |
And here I’m sitting here in a shiny blue suit |
Just a-grinnin' like a crazy fool |
Kinda wonderin' what to do with the other sleeve |
I hate that three-armed poker playin' river rat from New Orleans |
