Testi

Don't you know it's been rainin' in the mountains and the river's on the rise
We cannot hardly reach the other side
And the devil he's in trouble, I can see it in his eyes
If you don't give him shelter, he'll have no place to hide
The devil deals in dyin' and he travels in a hearse
He treats you like a dog now, he'd like to treat you worse
But he don't have the answers, and if he did he'd lie
The devil is a joker an' he don't want you alive
And some you win, an' some you lose
An' the winner's all grin and the losers say:
"Deal the cards again
Oh, won't you deal the cards again"
L.A.'s in California, Lord, I been there many times
It is an education, to be sure
I loved a lovely lady there, she opened up my eyes
She ran a dancin' school, it was a front, she loved the Lord
An' some you win, an' some you lose
An' the winner's all grin and the losers say:
"Deal the cards again
Oh, won't you deal the cards again"
It's been rainin' in the mountains and the river's on the rise
We cannot hardly reach the other side
And the devil he's in trouble, I can see it in his eyes
If you don't give him shelter, he'll have no place to hide
If you don't give him shelter, he'll have no place to hide
