Some people say jesus is the ace in the hole
But i never met the man so i don't really know
Maybe some christmas if i'm sick and alone
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 (clarence franklin)
Two hundred dollars, that's my ace in the hole
When i'm down, dirty and desesperate
That's my emergency bank roll (i got)
Two hundred dollars, that's the price on 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 the 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 self-control
I'd just walk in the middle of the road
I'd sleep in the middle of the bed
I'd 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
Lead on me
Don't you know me
I'm your guarantee
Riding on this rolling bus
Beneath a stony 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 rolls along
Roll on, roll on,
Roll on, roll on,
Roll on, roll on, (ooooh )
Some people say music is the ace in the hole
Just ordinary rhythm and blues
Your basic rock'n 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 music is sweet
Where you been so long
Don't you know me
I'm your ace in the hole (oh yeah)
Ace in the hole
Lead on me
Don't you know mw
I'm your guarantee

Hey junior, i'm your ace in the hole (i'm calling you)
Hey junior, i'm your ace in the hole (i'm calling you)
Hey junior, i'm your ace in the hole (i'm calling you)
Hey junior, i'm your ace in the hole
