Chairs Around The Table (Jones) BMI ©2003

 

Sadie got off the stagecoach, walked through the dusty town

Nothing but tumbleweed, shakin' down, shakin' round

She turned to see the old saloon, and the smell of whiskey

Burning down, it burned like hell

She remembers it oh so well

 

The name of the game is chairs around the table

Only rules are I can't tell you the rules

The name of the game is petals around the rose

Only rules are I can't tell you the rules

 

Sadie pushed open the swinging doors, suddenly the piano played

Over by the corner, was Mr. Chase, smiling face

I hear you're feeling lucky Sadie, and I wanna tell ya

You'll never win in a hundred years

Just like your Dad, you’re full of fear

 

Sadie sat at the table, Mr. Chase dealing five

Pick your poison little girl, Sadie snapped one-eyed jacks

Hit me twice real nice, this one's for my father

Shootin' straight, I call your bluff

I'm sitting on a Royal Flush
