“Solitaire” Lyrics:

You found me thumbing down the road
Between my head and my heart
In a three dollar suit
With a worn out deck of cards
Solitaire's the only game
Where you don't need nobodies help
Oh but lord you're bound to lose
If you bet against yourself
Oh River, friend of mine
Are you the losing kind?
I'll sing the hymnal call again
Sing it sweet by and by
No god could hear my plea
Oh river let it be
Sing the hymnal call again
Sing it sweet by and by
Oh two non-believers
We searched for ashes for our heads
But not a church in this town
Had a priest out of bed
I know you cry about your brother
For the times that he goes mad
I bet you look at me the same way
I'd throw my money down on that
Oh River, friend of mine
Are you the losing kind?
I'll sing the hymnal call again
Sing it sweet by and by
No god could hear my plea
Oh river let it be
Sing the hymnal call again
Sing it sweet by and by
Here's the flop
Then the turn
Take a breath and hold it in
You might lose out on that river
You might take it to the chin
But oh River, friend of mine
Are you the losing kind?
I'll sing the hymnal call again
Sing it sweet by and by
No god could hear my plea
Oh river let it be
Sing the hymnal call again
Sing it sweet
Sing it sweet
By and by
