6) I Got Aces

Seamstress for the band,
New girl in town:
Tailor-made woman, ain't no
Hand-me-down.

¡Bay-beh,
I got aces!
¡Bay-beh...

Everybody's foldin', every hand that I play,
Corners of my mouth must uh
Gave me away, I said,

¡Bay-beh,
I got aces!
¡Bay-beh...

Closer to the vest with
Every hand that I play,
Thumpin' uh my cards must uh
Gave me away...
