Spanish Jack had a Cadillac

That he always parked around the corner

He wore his hat tipped to the side

Like a pimp on Easter morning

I was on the street that Saturday night

When they all claim they saw him

In his cowboy shoes and shantung suit

And the night was young in August

His lady's name was Sunny Day

She had Jack tattooed on her shoulder

Jack played cards with Gentleman Jim

And Sunny did everything Jack told her

Gentleman Jim won Jack's watch

And chain in a badly dealt game of poker

Then Sunny Day kind of moved away

As the last hand hit the table

Jack he had a pair of nines

And Gentleman showеd three aces

You took my watch and chain

And now my gold tipped cane

Put both your hands up on thе table

We can settle this thing in a gentleman's way

Let's just step outside the doorway

The night was warm and they looked at the stars

But only one will see the morning

There's nothing lower than a cheat at cards

Especially at poker

Before the Gentleman he could cheat again

The Spaniard pulled out his revolver

Spanish Jack shot Gentleman dead

And the shouts sounded loud as thunder

And when the smoke it cleared

Gentleman Jim lay dead

This was his last game of poker

Jack filled Jim with so much lead

It took six men too move him over

So full of lead and oozing red

They stole the boots right off his body

If you're gonna play a game of cards

Be sure with who you're gambling

This game of chance you could never win

If Spanish Jack is at the table
