Paul Simon - Ace In The Hole - Текст песни

Some people say Jesus that's the ace in the hole
 But I never met the man so l don't really know
 Maybe some Christmas if I'm sick and alone
 He will look up my number
 Call me on the phone and say :
 Hey, boy, where you been so long
 Don't you know me
 I'm your ace in the hole
 
 Two hundred dollars, that's my ace in the hole
 When I'm down, dirty and desperate
 That's my emergency bank roll (I got . . .)
 Two hundred dollars, that's the price on the street
 If you wanna get some quality
 That's the price you got to meet (and the man says...)
 Hey, Junior, where you been so long
 Don't you know me
 I'm your ace in the hole
 (talk about ace in the hole)
 
 Once I was crazy and my ace in the hole
 Was that I knew that I was crazy
 So I never lost my self-control
 I just walk in the middle of the road
 I sleep in the middle of the bed
 I stop in the middle of a sentence
 And the voice in the middle of my head said
 Hey, Junior, where you been so long
 Don't you know me
 I'm your ace in the hole (oh yeah)
 Ace in the hole
 Lean on me
 Don't you know me
 I'm your guarantee
 
 Riding on this rolling bus
 Beneath a stormy sky
 With a slow moon rising
 And the smokestacks driving by
 
 In the hour when the heart is weakest
 And the memory is strong
 When time has stopped
 But the bus just rolls along
 Roll on, roll on
 Roll on, roll on
 Roll on, roll on
 
 Some people say music that's their ace in the hole
 Just your ordinary rhythm and blues
 Your basic rock and roll
 You can sit on the top of the beat
 You can lean on the side of the beat
 You can hang from the bottom of the beat
 But you got to admit that the music is sweet
 
 Where you been so long
 Don't you know me l m your ace in the hole (oh yeah)
 
 Ace in the hole
 Lean on me
 Don't you know me
 I'm your guarantee
 
 Some people say music that's their ace in the hole
 Just your ordinary rhythm and blues
 Your basic rock and roll
 You can sit on the top of the beat
 You can lean on the side of the beat
 You can hang from the bottom of the beat
 But you gotta admit that the music is sweet
 
 Hey, Junior, I'm your ace in the hole
 Hey, Junior, I'm your ace in the hole
 Hey, Junior, I'm your ace in the hole
 Hey, Junior, I'm your ace in the hole
