Sarah Slean – Playing Cards With Judas lyrics

Playing cards with Judas
In the lounge of a Hotel
And I ask while we're playing
If he likes it there in Hell
Judas doesn't answer
He just laughs and plays his hand,
"Lights another cigarette," and turns toward the band

I have no missionary zeal, I said
The war is fighting sin
But I'll keep playing, I'll keep playing
Until I win

I always loved the blues, he says, from behind that grid
You getting used to losing yet, girl?
So I can deal them again
My friends have good intentions,
But they're a thousand years too late
A few buildings and commandments
Won't save you from your fate.

I have no missionary zeal, I said,
The war is fighting sin
But I'll keep playing, I'll keep playing
Until I win

Ahh...

I have no missionary zeal, I said
I don't believe in sin
But I'll keep playing, I'll keep playing
I'll keep playing
I'll keep playing
I'll keep playing
I'll keep playing
Until I win...
