The man layed his hat on the table
  Hung his coat up on the wall
  Sat down to dinner said as soon as I am able
  I'll say something nice to you all
  
  Then he took a deck from his pocket
  Spread 'em so I saw 'em all
  Then the turned his back to me shuffled 'em and drew me
  The card that said I never would fall
  Oh Mary Lou won't you tell me what to do
  I got a dollar on the corner and a laser in my shoe
  If I don't get an answer gonna split myself in two
  
  He spun 'till a ton was glistening
  Turned to me and gave me a smile
  He said I'm leaving now but I want what you owe me
  I'll be back in a little while
  
  That was the last time I saw him
  Hope I never see him again
  I know it sounds funny but I owe him some money
  And I really don't want him for a friend
