Playing Poker With the Devil

We are all sinners and we know it Greed and temptation are some of the tools That old Satan knows how to use well God has no problem if we make a profit If we do it his way and don't act like fools Or we will be playing card in Hell The Devil deals from the bottom of the deck Always has a crooked ace up his sleeve Tell you he has a ace in the hole And just waiting for you to end up in a wreck Unless you let God be the coach and believe 'Or the Devil will have your soul God does not play cards with Satan But he does know all the trick, he is the real deal There is no gamble in his game He know what Satan can do to a man And make one dizzy with his old spinning wheel You see there is no shame in his game Has Lady Luck there to temp and lead you on He know that he is a cheat and cannot do it alone Making the stakes higher and you have to play When it is over, they are both gone Cut your throat and to the bone Your best bet is let God be your dealer everyday
