I'm waiting for ships that never[00:00:00]
Come in I wonder where they can be[00:00:08]
Life is only a game of poker[00:00:21]
And happiness is the partner[00:00:24]
They deal you five cards in the[00:00:27]
Cradle and you play with your[00:00:29]
Like it or not[00:00:32]
Some game had a start with[00:00:36]
And the game doesn't seem[00:00:37]
On the square[00:00:39]
When you pick up your cards[00:00:40]
And discover you were born[00:00:41]
Without even a pair[00:00:43]
But there's no use in kicking[00:00:46]
Nor squawking[00:00:49]
Just pick up your cards and[00:00:49]
Begin to figure in plan and puzzle[00:00:51]
While fate looks on with a grin[00:00:54]
Some take a chance on bluffing[00:00:59]
And stake everything gotthey've[00:01:01]
On a little yankee poor flush[00:01:02]
And sometimes that wins a plot[00:01:04]
Others will break up openers[00:01:09]
To draw for a middle straight[00:01:11]
They know the chance they're[00:01:14]
Takin' and they learned your[00:01:15]
Mistake too late[00:01:17]
Some can't plan crook it[00:01:20]
Against all good advice[00:01:22]
But they seldom get away[00:01:25]
With it at the end they've[00:01:29]
Paid the price[00:01:31]
The most of us play straight[00:01:38]
Poker but I'll tell you boys it's hard[00:01:40]
When you're there with both[00:01:44]
Ends open and you draw[00:01:45]
Can't the winning card[00:01:46]
Now I've always been a loser[00:01:51]
It seems that I never can win[00:01:55]
Andr I'm just a dreamer who's[00:01:58]
Waiting for ships that never come in[00:02:00]
I wonder where they can be[00:02:03]
I'm waiting for ships that never come - Jim Reeves[00:02:12]
