[verse 1] I remember it well. The days our eyes first locked. I knew we were in a contest And I wasn’t shocked. When you raised on the blinds, Didn’t even have time To think about my hand, Instead, you were already in my head. [pre-chorus] Now smoke’em if you got’em Slide in your last few bucks, Pray to your gods A few extra for good luck. [chorus] I Left some cards on the table. Left some moves on the board. Different play on the turn, some things you just never learn. Left some cards on the table, With my chips and might have beens All in on the river, not enough aces in the world To win this old girl. [verse 2] The first thing that I do When sitting across the felt. Is look’em deep in the eye Before the cards are dealt. But she had me burning up sweating, like I was Doused in gasoline. there ain’t a woman this side of Abilene That read me like Like this poker queen. [pre-chorus] Now smoke’em if you got’em Slide in your last few bucks, Pray to your gods A few extra for good luck. [chorus] I Left some cards on the table. Left some moves on the board. Different play on the turn, some things you just never learn. Left some cards on the table, With my chips and might have beens All in on the river, not enough aces in the world To win this old girl. [banjo and steel guitar solo] [verse 3] There's a way we coulda played this just me and you. that's a bet ya couldn't make, something ya just couldn't do. Left me in Memphis, Dead broke with no ace. I got me a life-lesson About how to read a face And when to walk away. [pre-chorus] Now smoke’em if you got’em Slide in your last few bucks, Pray to your gods A few extra for good luck. [chorus] I Left some cards on the table. Left some moves on the board. Different play on the turn, some things you just never learn. Left some cards on the table, With my chips and might have beens All in on the river, not enough aces in the world To win this old girl. [call and response] Smoke’em (if you got’em] Check the Temp! Smoke’em (if you got’em] You won’t do that again!
