Yeah, I played a many thing
And I never want a thing
Yeah, you can find a mother hard
As hard as me
And I played it in the fall
Never wanted a thing at all
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
And I fell down on my knees
And pleaded the Jack of spades
Never go hard, mother
As hard as me
I played yesterdays
There was a starvation in my veins
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
And I payed all the dues
Look at Jack in front of you
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
And I even
(???)
It was almost part of me
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
And I played against the law
Put the judge in front the door
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
Oh, I played the Jack
And the gall relentlessly made me cry
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
Yeah, left bleeding out of six
And left me in a terrible bit
Jack of diamonds was her heart
Hard to break
Yeah, I told you last week
As plain as a man can speak
I'm gonna send you to your pappa
Big deal
And I played against the king,
But life can turn round
Ya, come on, motherfucker
I played against the king,
And liked to make the daemon sing
I played against the king,
