Deck Of Cards (Album Version) - Hank Williams (小汉克威廉斯)

During the North African Campaign

A bunch of soldier boys had been on a long hike

They arrived in a little town called Casino

The next day being Sunday

Several of the boys went to church

After the Chaplain read the prayer

The text was taken up

Those of the boys that

Had a prayer book took them out

One boy had only a deck of cards

So he spread them out

The sergeant who commanded the boy

Saw the cards and said

Soldier put away those cards

After the service was over

The soldier was taken prisoner

And brought before the Provost Marshall

The Marshall said

Sergeant why have you brought this man here

For playing cards in church Sir and

What have you to say for yourself son

Much Sir the soldier replied

And the Marshall stated

I hope so for if not I will punish you

More than any man has ever been punished

The soldier said you see Sir

I have been on the march for six days

I have neither bible nor a prayer book

But I hope to satisfy you sir

With the purity of my intentions

You see sir when I look at the Ace

It reminds me that there is but one God

When I see the deuce reminds me

That the bible is divided into two parts

The Old and the New Testaments

When I see the trey

I think of the Father the Son and the Holy goast

And when I see the four

I think of the four evangelists

Who preached the Gospel

There was Matthew Mark Luke and John

When I see the five

It reminds me of the five wise virgins

Who trimmed their lamps;

There were ten of them

Five were wise and were saved

Five were foolish and were shut out

When I see the six

It reminds me that in six days

God made this great heaven and earth

And when I see the seven

It reminds me that on the seventh day

God rested

When I see the eight

I think of the eight righteous persons

God saved when he destroyed the earth:

There's Noah his wife their three sons and their wives

And when I see the nine

I think of the lepers our saviour cleansed

And that nine of the ten didn't even thank him

When I see the ten I think of the ten commandments

God handed down to Moses on a tablet of stone

When I see the King

It reminds me once again

There's but one King of Heaven God Almighty

And when I see the Queen

I think of the blessed Virgin Mary

Who is the Queen of Heaven

And the Jack or Knave is the Devil

When I count the number of spots in a deck of cards

I find 365 the number of days in a year

There are 52 cards the number of weeks in a year

There are 13 tricks the number of weeks in a quarter

There are four suits the number of weeks in a month

There are twelve picture cards

The number of months in a year

So you see Sir

My deck of cards serves me as a bible

An almanac and a prayer book

And friends this story is true

Because that soldier was me
