Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Did I ever stop to tell you
I am a desperate man
I thought I saw a bluebird
Sitting on a post
I thought I saw a bluebird
Sitting on a post
Felt a shiver down my spine
Thought it was the holy ghost
I heard the voice of Satan
Howling in the woods
I heard the voice of Satan
Howling in the woods
Somebody said, "Well, we should do
Like the good book says we should"
So don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Did I ever stop to tell you
I am a desperate man
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Did I ever stop to tell you
I am a desperate man
