Story behind the song
A lesson in life learned the hard way.
Lyrics
Some mens work hard all their life Get dealt nothin’ but grief and pain Other mens have good luck fall on ‘em Like springtime Georgia rain Once, I had me some fame and fortune But I let it all slip away Busted out on a good hand And it dogs me to this day When you see that hole card comin’ Lord, you better double down You better double down, Junior, if you can Everywhere I went it was high times I was livin’ big all over town Whiskey and women come callin’ I kept spreadin’ that money ‘round I was bettin’ on one last diamond Got hit blind with a no good spade All I could hear was my so called friends Talkin’ ‘bout what a mess I’d made When you see that hole card comin’ Lord, you better double down You better double down, Junior, if you can

What a great vibe amigo!...
Stevie, this is great stuff here, love this tune! Feels like the SOUTH! Old time music meets blues, great instruments and of course vocals. Outstanding work! Cheers from Frankfurt Andreas
