When I was a young man I played my guitar I played for the people in Black Jack's Bar They danced to the music and called me a star And I took in the money in Black Jack's Bar I kept things a movin' with a crazy beat I kept up a rhythm with my two big feet I played pretty women like I played my guitar And I got into trouble in Black Jack's Bar got into trouble in Black Jack's Bar One night I played till my fingers were sore They called for a break and I stepped through the door I stood there a lookin' at the heaven so grand When up stepped a woman with a bottle in her hand She took one swallow and I saw her frown I turned up the bottle and I guzzled it down I battled my eyes and I looked at her charms The next thing I knew she was in my arms I got into trouble in Black Jack's Bar
I hugged her and kissed her and called her mine Drunk on her kisses and drunk on her wine Somebody yelled come and play your guitar We both stuggered back into Black Jack's Bar Somebody said you better run for your life You've been a playin' with the wrong man's wife He swang his knife and swung my guitar And I killed me a gambler in Black Jack's Bar I got in trouble in Black Jack's Bar When I get out of this place called the pen I ain't never comin' back here again I'm gonna do right and I'm gonna go straight I'm gonna be careful whose wife I date I ain't a huggin' no woman but mine drinkin' no liquor and not much wine Sittin' in my cell with my old guitar wonder who's a playin' in Black Jack's Bar (I got in trouble in Black Jack's Bar) wonder who's a playin' in Black Jack's BarTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
