Luyện nghe bài hát Darktown Poker Club

Bill was a poor old dub,
Who joined the Darktown Club
But the day he told them he would join.
His money to go like it had wings
If he Queens, someone had Kings
And each night he contribute all his coins.
He said I'm going to play em tonight
No flush is gonna make me bite
I get's in, my hands going to be a peach.
So he played em tight, but lost his
And got peevish after a while
So he rose, got up, and this speech.

He said - Now you all see brand new razor
had it sharpened just today
And I'm in with my own rules
That you follow as you play.
Now keep them boney hands on the when you deal'em please
And don't be slipp'en any aces down there in your knees.
And don't make any of them funny signs like your trying to tip off your
talk in American, boy American - so's I can understand.
And don't be dealing off the bottom, Oh! that's rough
Just take Five, Five - then stop, enough.
Now when you bet, put up them chips, cause I don't it when you shy.
If you get busted - go get some, I won't be here by & by.
Pass them cards for me to shuffle every time before you
Then if anything wrong, I see.
Cause you ain't going to play this according to Mr. Hoyle,
You're going to play this here game to me.

Now sitting there at that there clan
There chanced to be a one man
And Bill kept watching from the of his eye.
If ol' would deal'em then
It would have cost Bill another five or ten.
So he rose, looked all around and a sigh,
He said 'Lord' he said - but an awful shame,
But there's someone cheating in this here
Of course it don't do for me to the guy.
So refrain from mentioning the party's name
But if I him cheating just once again
I'm gonna take my fist and that other eye.

Now you all see this brand new
Well had it sharpened just today
I'm comin' in my own rules
That you must when you play. - Egad
Keep your hands up there you deal'em please
And don't be puttin' those slip in between your knees.
And don't make them funny signs like your trying to tip off hand
Just American - Big A-A-A so's I can understand.
And don't be takin' off the bottom, I've told you before - that's rough!
This is the game, Five, Five - then halt, that's enough.
When you bet, let's see them Reds and Blues, I don't like it when you shy.
If you run out of gas - go get pumped up, I be here by & by.
Pass them pasteboards for me to every time before you deal - let me ripple.
wrong, I wanna see.
I mean you ain't play this game now according to Mr. Hoyle,
You're going to play game according to me.
Henry, if you break the seal on them new set of Bicycles - go on from here....Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
