Ray Charles - The Cincinnati Kid Lyrics






He came witht the name Cincinnati
A kid with no ace in the hole
On a hot poker pot, Cincinnati
Had staked his heart and soul
He played night and day like a demon
And prayed for that one lucky day
When the lush royal flush of his dreaming
Is just a game away
Beyond all the green felt shadows
His own queen of hearts will wait
But till he's king of the green felt shadows
She'll wait, and wait, and wait
For sure as the cards will be falling
And chips in the pot, he'll remain
For the book Lady Luck will be calling

Whoah, the Cincinnati kid
I mean the Cincinnati kid
Whoah, the Cincinnati kid
Whoah, the Cincinnati kid

I'm talking about the Cincinnati kid
Everybody knows the Cincinnati kid
Have you heard about the, the Cincinnati kid

    Actually it's

    He came with the name Cincinnati
    A kid with no ace in the hole
    On a hot poker pot, Cincinnati
    Had staked his heart and soul

    He played night and day like a demon
    And prayed for that one lucky day
    When the lush royal flush of his dreaming
    Is just a game away

    Beyond all the green felt shadows
    His own queen of hearts will wait
    But till he's king of the green felt shadows
    She'll wait and wait and wait

    For sure as the cards will be falling
    And chips in the pot pyramid
    For a buck, 'Lady Luck' will be calling
    Whoah, the Cincinnati kid, I mean the Cincinnati kid

    Whoah, the Cincinnati kid, whoah, the Cincinnati kid
    I'm talking about the Cincinnati kid
    Everybody knows the Cincinnati kid
    Have you heard about the, the Cincinnati kid?
