Deal 'em Again

You pick up the cards that they're dealing to you

You can throw down or showdown

The bluff makes a fool out of you

The ante goes up and your luck runs down

It's a strange game, it's a damn shame

But somebody's going to lose

It don't matter, lose or win

You can deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

A handful of hearts and you're playing to win

It goes down and you're put down

And that takes it all out of you

One last hand and you're going for broke

The cards fall and you take all

Just when you thought you were through

It don't matter, lose or win

You can deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

It don't matter, lose or win

You can, you can deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

You pick up the cards that they're dealing to you

You can throw down or showdown

When love makes a fool out of you

The ante goes up and your luck runs down

It's a strange game, it's a damn shame

But somebody's going to lose

It don't matter, lose or win

You can, you can deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

You can deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

Deal 'em again

You gotta deal 'em again, hey
