Deadman's Hand

Hit me
Aces over eight, come to seal your fate
Run if you think you can
The devil and Wild Bill comin' after you
Take a drink of whiskey to still your hand
Back against the wall time to make your last stand
But there ain't much that you can do
When they deal you the Deadman's hand

If you find yourself in Wild Bill's bar
You better mind what you say and do
Deadwood, South Dakota, saloon number 10

Don't let the devil deal you in
Don't let Wild Bill force your hand
It's an evil game, and it's one that you can't win

But it's aces over eight, come to seal your fate
Run if you think you can
The devil and Wild Bill coming after you
Take a drink of whiskey to still your hand
Back against the wall, time to make your last stand
But there ain't much you can do
When they deal you the Deadman's hand

When the devil starts dealing from a loaded deck
And the hair stands up on the back of your neck

It's the queen of diamonds and aces over eight
Well the bids are high, and the stakes are raisin'
You might as well go down with both guns blazin'
It's too late to fold, so ante up to your fate

Cause it's aces over eight, come to seal your fate
Run if you think you can
The devil and Wild Bill coming after you
Take a drink of whiskey to still your hand
Back against the wall, time to make your last stand
Oh there ain't much that you can do when they deal you
The Deadman's hand
Dead man's hand
Dead man's hand
Boom
