Steve Forbert - House of Cards songtekst

Je score:


VERSE

Oooh, I guess I knew it would happen eventually

But I was not prepared for the word

No, I was not prepared for the word

No, they didn't give me no warning 'fore they told me the news

And I could not believe what I heard

No, I could not believe what I heard



VERSE

Hey, well it started to hit me later on in the night

I reacted by blowing my stack

I reacted by blowing my stack

Oooh, feeling cheated and taunted and mad at the whole world at large

As I pissed on a black cadillac

As I pissed on a black cadillac



CHORUS

House of cards--(and) don't it make ya wonder?

House of cards--(oh) don't it make ya wonder?



VERSE

Oooh, thousands of people gathered outside of his gate

Some came to sell souvenirs

Some came to sell souvenirs

Yes, souvenirs of the hillbilly singer who conquered the world  

Now dead after 42 years

Dead after 42 years



(REPEAT CHORUS)



VERSE

Yes, and then came the stories all pushin' their way through the press

Stories of madness and pain

Stories of madness and pain

Oooh, they'll do what they can to ravage, exploit, and destroy

His glory, his fame, and his name

His glory, his fame, and his name



(REPEAT CHORUS)



VERSE

Ooh, the King undisputed, reclusive an' high on a throne

The symbol an' saint, he was youth

Oh, the symbol an' saint, he was youth

Yes, an' now that he's dead an' he's laid in his great, marble tomb

We're all left with a whole lotta truth

We're all left with a whole lotta truth



VERSE

Ooh, I guess a lotta sad people grew up on that hot, summer day

One more big dream swept away

One more big dream swept away

Yes, he's gone an' he's free, but still all of his music remains

I don't know what more I can say

And I don't know what more I can say . . . except



(REPEAT CHORUS THREE TIMES)
