Deck Of Cards letra

You see sir, when I look at the "ace", it reminds me that
There is but one god;

And the "deuce" reminds me that the bible is divided into
Two parts; the old and the new testaments

And when I see the "three", I think of the father, the son,
And the holy ghost

And when I see the "four", I think of the four evangelists
Who preached the gospel. There was matthew, mark, luke and john

And when I see the "five", it reminds me of the five wise
Virgins who trimmed their lamps. There were ten of them, five
Were wise and were saved. Five were foolish and were shut out

And when I see the "six", it reminds me that in six days,
God made this great heaven and earth;

When I see the "seven", it reminds me that on the seventh day,
God rested from his great work;

And when I see the "eight", I think of the eight righteous
Persons god saved when he destroyed this earth. There was
Noah, his wife, their three sons and their wives

And when I see the "nine", I think of the lepers our saviour
Cleansed. And nine out of the ten didn't even thank him
When I see the "ten", I think of the ten commandments god
Handed down to moses on a table of stone
When I see the "king", it reminds me that there is but one
King of heaven, god almighty
And when I see the "queen" I think of the blessed virgin mary
Who is queen of heaven

And the "jack" or "knave" is the devil
When I count the number of spots on a deck of cards
I find 365, the number of days in a year
There;s 52 cards, the number of weeks in a year
There's 4 suits, the number of weeks in a month
There's 12 picture cards, the number of months in a year
There's 13 tricks, the number of weeks in a quarter
So you see, sir, my pack of cards serves me as a bible
Almanac and prayer book.
And friends this is a true story because I knew that soldier
