ONE EYED JACK song lyrics/Words by Joel Sattler

Open up another bottle
I'll take that one on the wall
If you feel you gotta raise me
Then I guess I'd better call

Play the deuce or play the aces
Know it's all the same to me
If you want to go the limit
That's the thing I like to see

One eyed Jack, understand
You take your chances
when you play this hand
Risk your love, risk your life
So far you're doing all right

Sacred is the game of poker
To the man who's gotta bet
He's been looking for a sure thing
But he hasn't found it yet

All his life he's had to gamble
Had to pay for his mistakes
Still addicted to the habit
Praying for a lucky break

One eyed Jack, understand
You take your chances
when you play this hand
Risk your love, risk your life
So far you're doing all right
