Deck of Cards歌词

Deck of Cards歌词完整版

During the north african campagne

A bunch of soldier boys had been on a long hike

And they arrived in a little town callled casino

The next morning being Sunday several of the boys went to church

A sargent commanded the boys in church

And after the chaplain had read the prayer

The text was taken up next

Those of the boys who had a prayer books took them out

But this one boyhad only a deck of cards

And so he spread them out

The sargent saw the cards and said soldier put away those cards

After the services were over the soldier was taken prisoner

And brought before the provost marshall

The marshall said sergeant why have you brought this man here

For playing cards in church sir

And what have you to say for yourself son

Much sir replied the soldier

The marshall said I hope so for if not

I shall punish you more than any man was ever punished

The soldier said sir I have been on the March for about six days

I have neither bible nor prayerbook but I hope to satisfy you sir

With the purity of my intentions

And with that the boy started his story

You see sir when I look at the ace

It reminds me that there is but one god

And the deuce reminds me that the bible is divided

Into two parts the old and the new testament

When I see the trey I think of the father son and the holy ghost

And when I see the four I think of the four evangelists who preached

The gospel there was matthew mark luke and john

And when I see the five it reminds me of the five wise virgins

Who trimmed their lamps there were ten of them

Five were wise and were saved five were foolish

And were shut out

When I see the six it reminds me that in six days

God made this great heaven and earth

When I see the seven it reminds me that on the seventh day

God rested from his great work

And when I see the eight I think of the eight rightous persons

God saved when he destroyed this earth

There was noah his wife their three sons and their wives

And when I see the nine I think of the lepers our saviour cleansed

And nine out of the ten didn't even thank him

When I see the ten I think of the ten commandments

God handed down to moses on a table of stone

When I see the king it reminds me that there is but one king of heaven

God almighty

And when I see the queen I think of the blessed virgin mary

Who is queen of heaven and the jack of knaves is the devil

When I count the number of spots in a deck of cards

I find 365 the number of days in a year

There are 52 cards the number of weeks in a year

There are four suits the number of weeks in a month

There are twelve picture cards the number of months in a year

There are thirteen tricks the number of weeks in a quarter

So you see sir my pack of cards serves me as a bible

An almanac and a prayerbook

And friends the story is true I know

I was that soldier
