Lyrics:
The River (Texas Holdem)
Verse 1
It was 4 in the morning, the game was Texas Holdem
I had the short stack, Abraham had the chip
Sweet Pete and the good Doctor were somewhere in between
Two cards facedown were dealt to me
Pre-Chorus
Everybody was all in
Here comes the flop
Take your turn on the turn my friend
I’ll take my chances on the river
I’ll take my chances on the river
Chorus
Two cowboys staring at me
Sweet Pete’s got the jacks
The good Doctor has an ace-seven flush
Abraham plays a bluff – Abraham plays a bluff
Verse 2
I was behind the blind, the action was on me
Had to pay the 5 large to see the community
Sweet Pete and the good doctor were happy to check
Abraham pushed another 3 grand to raise the bet
Verse 3
The flop came in no help, no help for me
The ace on the turn was the last thing that I wanted to see
Sweet Pete and the good Doctor began to grin
But the king on the river, 5th street – I pushed all in
