Poker Face

A fresh new soul has joined the feast.
He has the mind of a child but the heart of a beast.
His best he gives even when in vain.
There are those who hide and cause more pain.

I set my table for those that hate.
I’ll share my meal you can have my plate.
You can have my seat and my drink as well.
Join my ranks and sit a spell.

I’m the type of man who speaks his mind.
I respect the truth even when it’s blind.
I hold no grudge and forgive the past.
I’m very loyal but my temper’s fast.

I’m sometimes harsh and often loud.
My will is strong and I’m very proud.
I love the ladies and respect them all.
I never bluff and I’ll see your call.
