Ace in the Hole - Bunk Johnson[00:00:00]
This town is full of guys[00:00:11]
Who think they're mighty wise[00:00:14]
Just because they know a thing or two[00:00:17]
Why you can see them everyday[00:00:22]
Strolling up and down Broadway[00:00:25]
Telling of the wonders they can do[00:00:29]
You see why conmen and boosters[00:00:34]
Card sharks and crap shooters[00:00:37]
They congregate around the Metropole[00:00:39]
They wear fancy ties and collars[00:00:45]
But where they get their dollars[00:00:48]
They all got an ace down in the hole[00:00:51]
Now some of them write to the old folks for coin[00:00:56]
And that's their ace in the hole[00:01:03]
But others have gals on the old Tenderloin[00:01:08]
And that's their ace in the hole[00:01:14]
They'll tell you of money[00:01:19]
They're made and they're spent[00:01:22]
But they never can buy a bankroll[00:01:25]
And their names would be mud[00:01:31]
Like a chump dealing stud[00:01:33]
If they lost that old ace in the hole[00:01:36]
They'll tell you all the trips[00:02:51]
They are going to make[00:02:53]
From 'Frisco up to that North Pole[00:02:56]
But they'd end up on that line[00:03:02]
In their clothes not a dime[00:03:05]
If they lost that old ace in the hole[00:03:07]
