Smiling Jack and the Lonesome Queen

The smiling Jack
and the lonesome Queen
Put their hands on the table
betwixt and between
A pair of Aces
in a house of Kings
plotting their revenge
while the chorus sings
There aint no better
time than here and now
Watching
Waiting
Hesitating
Hoping
Dreaming
Interveaning
There aint no better
time than here and now
Jack glanced the table
with his one one good eye
The Queen's face flushed
and she wondered why
The pair of Aces
in the house of Kings
decided not to fold
and the chorus sings
There aint no better
time than here and now
Watching
Waiting
Hesitating
Hoping
Dreaming
Interveaning
There aint no better
time than here and now
Jack raised the bet
the Queen called his bluff
The Aces beat a path
and things got rough
The Kings got their guns
Jack pulled his sword
The Queen took the money
and left without a word
There aint no better
time than here and now
Watching
Waiting
Hesitating
Hoping
Dreaming
Interveaning
There aint no better
time than here and now
