The Johnnys - Middle Sized John lyrics

He gambled and he'd deal Every game in every state And the deck was loaded more than once But he always played it straight Middle sized John Middle sized John He was the king of cards The king of cards The king of cards He was the king of cards And when he threw the dice He never used a trick And if he needed a pair He'd throw a slick double six Middle sized John Middle sized John He was a gamblin man A gamblin man A gamblin man He was a gamblin man Old Diamond Jim He marked the cards with liquor But John was no cheat He just used his lucky streak Middle sized John Middle sized John He was an honest man An honest man An honest man He was an honest man John k**ed Jim in cold blood With his best girl on his lap She just had to be called Lucille With a body like that That was his big deal Middle sized John Middle sized John Middle sized John He was sworn to fun He was sworn to have some fun Middle sized John Middle sized John Middle sized John He was the king of cards The king of cards The king of cards He was the king of cards
