[Spoken Intro] *harmonica draw, low and slow* Y’know, some folks sit down at the table thinkin’ one suit’s all they need. They chase hearts, chase spades, chase diamonds like they’re runnin’ from somethin’. But the smart ones? They build a hand from the whole damn deck. They know it ain’t about what you’re dealt— It’s how you play the suits under pressure. *harmonica blast, short and sharp* This one’s called *Suits in the Fire*. [Verse 1] Some folks split the suits too early Hearts in one hand, clubs in the next They chase a flush like it’s a sure thing But leave the diamonds out of the deck They play it clean, they play it narrow Thinkin’ one suit’s all they need But when the stakes get high and the fire’s burnin’ That hand starts to bleed [Chorus] I play my cards like I play my nights Mix the suits, mix the fire and light Spade for truth, heart for feelin’ Diamond for luck, club for dealin’ You want a hand that’s built to win? You need the suits to lean and bend [Verse 2] Saw a sharp down at the Diamond Table Had a jack, a queen, and a lowly two But he played it like a royal legend And the whole damn room knew what to do He didn’t chase the perfect pattern He built a hand from grit and grace Used every suit like a tool in the fire And left with a smile on his face [Chorus] I play my cards like I play my nights Mix the suits, mix the fire and light Spade for truth, heart for feelin’ Diamond for luck, club for dealin’ You want a hand that’s built to win? You need the suits to lean and bend [Bridge] We’re all just hands in the heat of the moment Skills like suits, you gotta own ’em Don’t split too soon, don’t play too clean The best hands come from in-between [Final Chorus] So play your cards like you play your life Mix the suits, mix the fire and light Spade for truth, heart for feelin’ Diamond for luck, club for dealin’ You want a hand that’s built to last? Use every suit, and play it fast Yeah, use every suit, and play it fast
