the flatlanders - the ballad of honest sam lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there never was a bad man in the movies
who could lie and cheat like honest sam
in the card room down at louie’s
he takes the pay from the workin’ man

[chorus]
lay your cards on the table
and everybody shows his hand
foiled again, you sad+eyed loser
foiled again by honest sam

[verse 2]
once, there came a simple stranger
he caught sam cheatin’, words were said
sam just winked at joe the strangler
joe, he shot that stranger dead

[chorus]
lay the cards on the table
and everybody shows his hand
foiled again, you sad+eyed loser
foiled again by honest sam

[verse 3]
now honest sam lives in a mansion
and he sails his ship out on the sea
and if the devil paid his ransom
well, then i guess he’d do the same for you and me
[chorus]
lay your cards on the table
and everybody, show your hand
foiled again, you sad+eyed loser
foiled again by honest sam
