If I was the boss and I had my way
I'd drink all night and play cards all day
Please, Mr. Dealer, won't you drop that jack?
Lend me five dollars and I'll pay you back
Well, it's hard, hard, waiting on the cards to fall
Well, it's hard, hard
Waiting on the cards to fall
Mary and the baby lying in the shade
Spending all the money that I ain't made
I got two women to call me honey
One's real pretty and she brings me the money
