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 and tell you I am a desperate man?

 I thought I saw a bluebird sitting on a post

Shiver down my spine

I thought it was the Holy Ghost

I heard the word before

 And I knew that it was good

Somebody oughta do like the Good Book should

 I heard the voice of Satan crying in the woods

 I saw my own heart laying black with blood

Don't play cards with Satan

 He'll deal you an awful hand

Please believe me

Did I ever stop and tell you I am a desperate man?

A desperate man

Satan!
