Luyện nghe bài hát Darktown Poker Club

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

He said - Now you all see this new razor
had it sharpened just today
And I'm comin''- in with my own
That you must 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 between knees.
And don't make any of them signs like your trying to tip off your hand
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 like 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
if anything wrong, I must see.
Cause you going to play this game according to Mr. Hoyle,
You're going to play this game according to me.

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

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