[00:00.00]The Card Cheat (Remastered) - The Clash
[00:28.90]There's a solitary man crying"Hold me"
[00:32.34]It's only because he's a-lonely
[00:34.47]
[00:35.59]If the keeper of time runs slowly
[00:38.97]He won't be alive for long
[00:41.78]
[00:42.60]If he only had time to tell of all of the things he planned
[00:47.78]
[00:48.97]With a card up his sleeve what would he achieve
[00:52.40]
[00:53.34]It means nothing
[00:53.90]
[00:55.52]To the o***m den and the barroom gin
[00:59.21]In the Belmont chair playing violins
[01:01.83]
[01:02.46]The gambler's face cracks into a grin
[01:05.84]As he lays down the king of spades
[01:09.30]But the dealer just stares
[01:11.49]There's something wrong here he thinks
[01:13.24]
[01:16.36]The gambler is seized and forced to his knees
[01:19.24]And shot dead
[01:35.84]He only wanted more time
[01:37.65]
[01:38.71]Away from the darkest door
[01:40.58]
[01:42.40]But his luck it gave in
[01:43.83]
[01:44.40]As the dawn light crept in
[01:46.33]And he lay on the floor
[01:48.21]
[01:49.33]From the Hundred Year War to the Crimea
[01:52.02]
[01:52.59]With a lance and a musket and a Roman spear
[01:55.27]
[01:56.09]To all of the men who have stood with no fear
[01:59.28]In the service of the King
[02:01.09]
[02:02.40]Before you met your fate be sure you
[02:06.09]Did not forsake your lover
[02:08.83]
[02:12.45]May not be around anymore
[02:13.57]
[02:44.52]There's a solitary man crying"Hold me"
[02:46.22]It's only because he's a-lonely
[02:48.65]
[02:49.53]If the keeper of time runs slowly
[02:51.78]
[02:52.34]He won't be alive for long
