Hold All the Aces

hold all the aces....
never able to gain the upper hand
never dealt a winning hand 
never able to 
hold all the aces....
the cards were stacked against me
it was rigged 
i was hustled 
never able to 
hold all the aces....
even when i though i had the winning hand
i was always bet by an even better hand
never able to
hold all the aces....
