Number One Honest Game Lyrics - John Hiatt

Well the Ace of Spades, walkin' on the water 

The joker's only daughter, in love with the king of hearts 

Ooooh and the Jack of Clubs is kissin' the Queen of Diamonds 

Oh, she's such a shy one, until that dancing starts 

It's a house of cards 

I guess it can blow too hard and the aces all fall down 

But there's no one to blame 

In the number one honest game 

Playin' the number one honest game

You got deuces wild, go find yourself a partner 

Tell her that you love her, before she checks your bet 

Seven's up try again tomorrow, it's only a life of sorrow 

This love you can't forget 

It's a house of cards 

I guess it can blow too hard and the aces all fall down 

But there's no one to blame 

In the number one honest game 

We're playin' the number one honest game 

Girl, my heart's not rigged nor gone astray 

I'm lookin' for that timeless game to play 

The way you move fills me with desire 

But if you play with me, girl, you're playin' with fire... I'm burnin' up 

Count your suits, add up all your markers 

Now that you have found her, you take the love you want 

Ooooh, you want mine, I'd give you kind and gentle 

Just forget the mental, you put your heart in front

Playin' the number one honest game...
