O.A.R. (Of A Revolution) - That Was A Crazy Game Of Poker Lyrics

But the news was on,the busch cold,and you mjssed thē whole "thīng"


(Did you improve upon the ideə or perpetuate thə flaw?)
Māybē tomorrow??

I can't believe that the first time I heard this song I didn't like it, even though I liked other OAR songs...I mean, this IS oar! This is like the OAR theme-song! I love it!

I feel like this is the unofficial I-went-to-college-in-the-early-2000’s anthem. It’s almost like I can smell a beer pong game when I hear it.

*Beirut

Wrapping up my first day of 2020 with this tune!

lyrics are so dumb

Reminds me of 2000 drinking captain morgan and chasing it with dr.pepper. getting wasted at parties and we would Blair this with 30 or 40 people drinking in 11th grade. This song makes me feel like and remember those days. What makes this song even better it's like 9 minutes long.

Nostalgic? Hell to the yeah!!
! 😮😃😀🎼🎸👏👏

Fantastic song back in 2001! It's amazing how some songs age well... I will say this one didn't.

I think they sayin Jah, mon

mike d?

I love this song because it makes me rember good memories with my dad so thanks for making the lyrics to the song

Song aint bad, just boring

Kenny vigil

2019 and still the best version on youtube :)

Here i sit by the bon fire and wife goes in house I'm left alone listening to this song of many years it is still a great song to listen to by my self in my country setting

That was a crazy game of poker.

I got drunk to this song so many times in SC......

One of my best friends loved this song, he passed away and I can’t help but love it even more. You say reeevolutioooonnn ❤️🎱🎼

At wootton high Rockville md

I went to high school with oar

I just heard this song on the radio. It was a 90s weekend on Alt 92.1

I'm not so sure this isn't the best live band to ever lace them up

Great drinking song

This brings back memories Haha. Part of the soundtrack of my freshmen year in college

I only subscribe because this is one of my parents favorite songs. I legitimately kinda hate this band, but I’ll tolerate it cuz my folks. And this song is hella catchy.

this soooooooo badly needs a karaoke version!

Loved it!

I used to jam this in HS w my gf 20
Years ago! WOW

Wonderful song !!!

Im gonna start my own band called ROA. The lyrics are going to be “That was a boring game of blackjack”.

If you are going to do a lyric video at least get the lyrics right

Wore this cd out cruising around Iraq 03

First time I’ve listened to this song in many years. Back when we’d go on road trips in the early 2,000’s from high school and college. Good times

How bout a revolution?

RIP Speedy!!! Chris LaMont... craziest fucker ive ever known and loved

When they opened for the college world series

Just listened to their interview on Pardon My Take and figured I’d check this band out. They really suck

I'm here because of Randy Santel!!! Anyone? Anyone?

Teddy Botana go Gators

Gravy cane of Boner

Brings back so many good memories listening to this song

This song is not from the album "In Between Now And Then", it's from the first album "The Wanderer".

My name is Johnny and not quite sure what im doing tonight?

It’s so hard to believe that this changed my musical perspective in 2005, it’s been a staple on my playlist. I saw OAR in concert in 2009 and again last summer and I CANNOT wait unit next summer’s show! Best show ever!!! No band compares to OAR LIVE in concert!!! “It’s not gonnna rain on this parade, yeah!” ICouncil Bluffs 2018!!!!! Hurry back to the Midwest, please!!!!!

Best damn song evverrrrr

My highschool football team listens and sings this before every game

Oh yeah yeah

Oh yea yea

Royal Flush diamonds gets a volumptuous tip for dealer and at least a small tip for some of the other players that enjoy the sport... Thanks cum n see me anytime.. Its just coins.. Nothings worth getting so mad to kill or hate over... Just one hand.... Good game..

This isn’t music

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

🎶💚😎

Big ass band in Ohio and Texas

Heard this great song in Vanessa Kade's stream!

This reminds me of a really fun night in Memphis. Thanks for posting.

Stoner memories!!!!! This song never gets old!!! Classic !!!

Saved this song on Shazam after I heard it in a bar! Few days later I’m on my computer and I play it... to my disappointment, the first 2/3 minutes are crap! But then finally “revolution!!!
Tune.

Top 5 best jukebox songs ever.

Get your money's worth! Lol

im into hip hop; me & my co worker who likes different genre of music put this song on.. and i been diggin' this song ever since! puts me inna good mood..

My mom loves you guys 👍👍👍

Just heard them do an interview on Rovers Morning Glory this morning

Just remembered this song from ages and ago and looked it up. Good times!

I remember this one summer I got busted with pot , my gf at the time would always play this song when she would drive me to court and I use to hate it but it eventually grew on me... damn never thought I’d miss those days as much as I do now minus the court part

I'm with you brother—this is my pick for worst song of all time. Seriously, this makes 4 Non-Blondes’ "What's Up?" sound like genius. It's kind amazing in a way because it sucks on SO MANY levels. Let’s break this down, shall we? Pretty amateurish playing (struggling to play a basic reggae beat isn’t a good sign) and as mentioned, awful tone. And why did it suddenly become reggae? And now you’re… scatting. Sure. But all that could be forgiven if it weren’t for the lyrics. My GOD, the lyrics. Let’s start with the title. Playing three terrible hands of poker was a crazy night? And you lost all your money in the second hand, but then somehow played another? And your friend is a clown, apparently? And why is he afraid? And your clown-friend hit you in the face with a bat? I guess he’s afraid of your face? So then you pull out a large-caliber handgun and… walk for a thousand years? With the clown-friend who just assaulted you? So you’re Moses now, I guess? And then you decide to play more poker with the money you don’t have? And then, if there’s time, I suppose, start a revolution? Because you have the drop on… something. And we find out that your clown-friend was apparently blind, because he just got two eyes—just like you! Which ties into the narrative thread how? And you drink an entire bottle of whisky—the whole thing—before you return to the bar to play poker? (Not a great strategy, just saying). So there’s a guy next to you who was presumably in some kind of industrial accident because he has no chin, whose money you took last night? But didn’t you just walk for 1000 years? And lose all your money? And I see clown-friend Johnny is back at the bar, somehow. And still afraid. And so now, as one might expect, you’re going to start a revolution. Got it. Look, if you want to nostalgically look back on this song as the soundtrack to when you and your dudebros drank 15 Nattie Lights after lacrosse practice, fine. But to defend this audio dumpster fire as anything other than the trainwreck it is is just silly.

Someone suggested this for worst song ever, and oh boy they weren't lying.

11 VIBRATION 💖💖💖

We used to dance our asses off to this in college. Back when house parties were the only place we could get drunk. I think I put it on every CD I burned in my early 20s.

This is the "official" theme song of Cresson, Texas

I've never played a hand of poker in my life but i still love this song.

Me and a couple of my friends tried playing poker, while listening to crazy game of poker, while tripping on some serious L... it got confusing

I just farted...

This song is somewhat decent.

Winter Olympics bring anyone here?

756 did not like this? for shame, for shave and Fur SHEEEEEIT. It is a bit long, but dose not feel it.

College!!!!! The good old days

🎶💚👍

I love this song, I know there are a lot of people that say how poorly written and executed this song is, and I kinda agree with you, but I love it. Listening to this songs reminds me of campfires at my camp in Wisconsin where people played songs like this that were raw, maybe not too good, but told a cool story and made it fun. This is exactly what this song does for me. As soon as the song starts to slow down and go more into the reggae I tend to stop listening. Such great memories.

I hate it

Sehr cool das Lied, schön ironisch

One of my pick me uppers! Great tune.

Nostalgia overload!!!! Last time i heard thiss song i was 20 and had 2000 rolls on me

My buddy and i currently pouring drinks to this... Glorious

Thanks for music

Good times at UT with great friends...Fisher Sibs Wade Ronnie

I think he's saying "red, with smiling eyes it's funny I don't have no money tonight." This is saying the "smiling eyes" guy doesn't have a poker face and can be read easily. The singer wishes he had money because he knows he could take some money off the other guy in a game of poker.

i was a freshman in college in 2001 and everyone jammed this song as we wore our teva sandles and smoked our drugs out of a coke can #texastech

Hell ya man PSU 99-03

Do you mean weed or like hard drugs??

@Barb Peterson This takes me back to freshman year at TVD back in '02.

I am the same age and I had the exact same experience only at the University of Hartford 😂

guns up

When you see them live you will appreciate this song so much more. The crowd is waiting for this song. Everyone jams out..

Agreed. I got to shout this song only once in two performances I saw. Unreal energy. I think that it was very close to the energy from 3am/Night Shift (I couldn't get that song out of my head for days after the first show in portland).

When I saw them live, everyone in the audience pulled out a deck of cards when this song came on and were throwing them in the air. It was awesome.

Best song ever

of all gambling songs including great ones by Kenny rogers, I like the story and song of this the best. I heard a live version the best more rock and roll and poor singing which adds to the ambiance.

My aunt and mom likes this song

Back before OAR sold their souls for Fame and glory. They actually had an original unique sound. Gave it all up to join the generics....

what's with this terrible vocal affect
