lirik lagu the name of the game is stud – tom paxton
well late last night, in the kettle of fish
i was havin’ a gl-ss of beer
when up comes a rounder by the name of sam
that lately been seen around here
he gives me a “howdy” and he buys me a drink
and he calls me by my name
says some of the boys are just a-waitin’ upstairs
would you like to have a poker game
there were four or five fellas round the table upstairs
the smoke was thick as sin
they took my coat and they pulled up a chair
and they proceeded to deal me in
i started in winnin’ with the very first hand
and i kept on winnin’ for a while
i had money in my pockets and money in my shoes
and money in a great big pile
but it’s –
oh lordy, don’t you see
this old stud poker be the ruin of me
you got to get ready to shed some blood
when the name of the game is stud
i kept on winnin’ for an hour or more
and the boys were feelin’ low
i was lookin’ like a winner n’ feeling like a sinner
and i just about had their dough
i caught a pair of aces on the very last hand
and i bet my whole bank-roll
but sam he had a pair of deuces on the deck
and another deuce in the hole
and it’s –
oh lordy, don’t you see
this old stud poker be the ruin of me
you got to get ready to shed some blood
when the name of the game is stud
you know i lost every penny i had in the world
i lost my last red cent
now my old woman ain’t talkin’ to me
and the landlord wants his rent
i know i had it comin’ and it sure enough did
and i’ve only got myself to blame
but my fingers keep itching and i keep on twitching
just to find another poker game
and it’s –
oh lordy, don’t you see
this old stud poker be the ruin of me
you got to get ready to shed some blood
when the name of the game is stud
