Paul Simon - Ace In The Hole Lyrics
Some people say Jesus that's the ace in
the hole
But I never met the man so I don't
really know
Maybe some Christmas If I'm sick
He will look up my number
Call me on the phone and say
Hey, boy, where you been so long
Don't you know me
I'm your ace in the hole
Two hundred dollars, that's my ace in
the hole
When I'm down. dirty and desperate
That's my emergency bank roll (I got...)
the street
If you wanna get some quality
That's the price you got to meet (and the
man says,,,)
Hey, Junior, where you been so long
Don't you know me
I'm your ace in the hole
(talk about ace In the hole)
Once I was crazy and my ace in the hole
Was that I knew that I was crazy
So I never lost my setf-control
I just walk in the middle of the road
I sleep In the middle of the bed
I stop In the middle of a sentence
And the voice in the middle of my head said
Hey, Junior, where you been so long
Don't you know me
I'm your ace in the hole (oh yeah)
Ace In the hole
Lean on me
Don't you know me
I'm your guarantee
Riding on this rolling bus
Beneath a stormy sky
With a slow moon rising
And the smokestacks drifting by
In the hour when the heart is weakest
And the memory Is strong
When time has stopped
But the bus Just rolls along
Roll on, roll on
Roll on. roll on
Roll on, roll on
Some people say music that's their ace in
the hole
Just your ordinary rhythm and blues
Your basic rock and roll
You can sit on the top of the beat
You can lean on the side of the beat
You can hang from the bottom of the beat
But you got to admit that the music øs sweet
Where you been so long
Don't you know me
I'm your ace in the hole (oh yeah)
Ace in the hole
Lean on me
Don t you know me
I'm your guarantee
Some people say music that's their ace in
the hole
Just your ordinary rhythm and blues
Your basic rock and roll
You can sit on the top of the beat
You can lean on the side of the beat
You can hang from the bottom of the beat
But you gotta admit that the music is sweet
Hey, Junior. I'm your ace In the hole
Hey. Junior, I'm your ace in the hole
Hey, Junior, I'm your ace in the hole
Hey, Junior, I'm your ace In the hole

A classic.
Great Song !!!
one of my favourites
Everybody in this band is great!
Outro gets me everytime
Slayer give the drummer some!
Sounds like a Steely Dan tune.
Thanks for sharing this! Do you know when and where Simon and the rest of the Jonah Levin Band were playing in this video? Is a full concert available somewhere?
the band was called Stuff as far as i know, but i'm no expert... this show was in Philly, and it used to be available on YT but that got taken down :( i'm pretty sure the whole thing is on here, just one song at a time, my wife had a playlist... that might have been taken down too, though, been a while... it's a f'in' FANTASTIC show, Robert, start to finish, they every single one of them gave the performance of a lifetime, if you're down for spending a little, and i do mean just a little, money on it, here's some options... https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=paul%20simon%20live%20philadelphia%20dvd
I just called them the Jonah Levin Band because all of the musicians onstage here play Simon's bandmates in the movie "One-Trick Pony," which was released four days before this concert took place, apparently. Thanks for pointing me toward the DVD — I had no idea!
I didn't see your comment about the DVD five months ago, but thanks for mentioning it.
yeah, i need to see that movie... i had never heard this song or One Trick Pony till i saw the concert about a couple years ago on Youtube, i pieced together that there IS a movie but i haven't gone tracking it down to watch it yet...
Live at the Tower Theater
It's available on youtube now
Thanks for sharing! This is a lesson how to play... :-)
