Blackjack Lyrics


Ah, let me tell you people
About this Blackjack game
It's caused me nothing but trouble
And I've only myself to blameHey hey hey, yeah
How unlucky can one man be
Well every quarter I get now
Lord, Blackjack takes it away from meMy friends don't come around me
Because I've been so blind
I can't even borrow a nickle
Now I've almost lost my mindHey hey hey, yeah
How unlucky can one man be
Well every quarter I get
Lord, Blackjack takes it away from meI sat there with two tens
I thought I'd have some fun
The dealer hit sixteen with a five
Just enough to make twenty oneHey hey hey, yeah yeah
How unlucky can one man be
Well every quarter I get

Yeah, Blackjack takes it away from me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Albert Collins (October 1, 1932 — November 24, 1993) was a blues guitarist, singer and musician. He had many nicknames, such as "The Ice Man", "The Master of the Telecaster" and "The Razor Blade". Born in Leona, Texas, Collins was a distant relative of Lightnin' Hopkins and grew up learning about music and playing guitar. His family moved to Houston, Texas when he was seven. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, he absorbed the blues sounds and styles from Texas, Mississippi and Chicago. His style would soon envelop these sounds.
