The Card Cheat - The Clash[00:00:00]
There's a solitary man crying "Hold me "[00:00:28]
It's only because he's a-lonely[00:00:32]
If the keeper of time runs slowly[00:00:35]
He won't be alive for long [00:00:38]
If he only had time to tell of all of the things he planned[00:00:42]
With a card up his sleeve what would he achieve [00:00:48]
It means nothing [00:00:53]
To the opium den and the barroom gin[00:00:55]
In the Belmont chair playing violins[00:00:59]
The gambler's face cracks into a grin[00:01:02]
As he lays down the king of spades[00:01:05]
But the dealer just stares[00:01:09]
There's something wrong here he thinks[00:01:11]
The gambler is seized and forced to his knees[00:01:16]
And shot dead[00:01:19]
He only wanted more time[00:01:35]
Away from the darkest door[00:01:38]
But his luck it gave in[00:01:42]
As the dawn light crept in[00:01:44]
And he lay on the floor[00:01:46]
From the Hundred Year War to the Crimea[00:01:49]
With a lance and a musket and a Roman spear[00:01:52]
To all of the men who have stood with no fear[00:01:56]
In the service of the King[00:01:59]
Before you met your fate be sure you[00:02:02]
Did not forsake your lover[00:02:06]
May not be around anymore[00:02:12]
There's a solitary man crying "Hold me "[00:02:44]
It's only because he's a-lonely[00:02:46]
If the keeper of time runs slowly[00:02:49]
He won't be alive for long[00:02:52]
