lyrics

No More Aces-
By James Hunnicutt

She wouldn't hear them lies no more
Burst through them swinging doors
Too big a fool to implore
And so, I took all her bullets
Then proudly hit the floor

No more aces
Her face is wild
I rode the stakes too high
For her to pardon this trial

So, I beg of you bartender
Won't you hurry out my one last round?
Pour it through the holes in my chest, into my blood
Before it drowns, take me down

No more aces

Swore to be a night to remember
Said she'd do the world a favor
For any lyin', cheatin', rollin' rambler
A smoke-filled tomb, a broken floor
Covered in crimson amber
Looks like a I've hit the floor again
But I won't be getting up this time my friend

Not this time my friend

I guess all good things must come to an end

No more aces
I done drove her wild
I rode the stakes too high
For her to ever live it down
