Five Card Stud [Wally Gold] [German translation]

Two years ago on a hot rainy night

A visitor rode into town

He tied up his horse at the Rainbow Café

And he bought ev'rybody a round

Hey, bartender, break open a new deck of cards

Let's have some good honest fun

A sociable little game for a dollar or two

Never did hurt anyone

A-put your money right down on the table, boys

The name of the game, Five Card Stud

And deal slow and easy from the top, son

The name of the game, Five Card Stud

The poker game lasted all through the night

Right on into the day

And one-by-one they had to drop out

For they had no more money to play

Now, all that were left were the visitor

And a man who was dressed mighty fine

He shuffled the cards and the crowd sensed the end

As they put all their chips on the line

A-put your money right down on the table, boys

The name of the game, Five Card Stud

When four cards were dealt to the gentleman's hand

Two kings ev'rybody could see

But the visitor's hand, looking better than his

Showed an ace, an ace and a three

The fifth card was dealt to the gentleman's hand

He smiled as he turned up a king

The visitor folded all of his cards

He left without saying a thing

Put your money right down on the table, boys

The name of the game, Five Card Stud

After he'd gone they turned over his cards

And surprise showed on ev'ryone's face

They'll never know why he got up to go

When the card in the hole was an ace

Now, in poker the rules say that aces beat kings

So in truth the stranger had won

But out of the crowd just the two of us knew

The stranger was playing his son

Put your money right down on the table, boys

The name of the game, Five Card Stud

A-deal slow and easy from the top, son

The name of the game, Five Card Stud

Five Card Stud

Five Card Stud

Five........[Fade]
