Inspired by an advertisement for a Casino at Tampa International Airport
Lyrics
Texas Holdem Man
Verse
Saturdays can’t come too soon
Cause they got a Poker room
At the local Seminole Reservation,
Get there early if I’m able
Grab me a seat at the tables
It’s my favorite form of weekend recreation.
Verse
The start of every deal brings
The promise of a set of matched kings
That’s the kind of hand that really makes me shiver,
But I’m dealt some pocket eights
And while I know that ain’t so great
Still I’ll bet ‘em all the way to the River, yeah.
Chorus
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
Hit the Casinos when I can
And I play without a plan
Yes I’m a Texas Holdem man
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I’ll raise the table with an ordinary hand
Jump from the fire to the frying pan,
I’m a Texas Holdem man
Verse
I keep a Lite Beer on my coaster
I wanna make ‘em think I’m toasted
But I never really drink while they’re dealing,
Bring the bottle to my lips
While I’m shuffling my chips
So the players wonder what I’m concealing
Chorus
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
Keep ‘em guessing what I hold in my hand,
Do I fold or do I take a stand?
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
Yeah I’m a Texas Holdem Man
Sport a ball cap and black Ray Bans
So my telling eyes can’t be scanned
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
Solo, transition music
Verse
Saturday can’t come too soon
Cause they got a Poker room
At the local Seminole Reservation,
If you hear me shout “All In”
Pray I draw enough to win
‘Cause if I don’t it’s such a tragic situation
Chorus
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I’ll call the flop bet on command
Hope the turn will save my hand
‘Cause I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I play to win as much as I can
Who really needs a pension plan?
When I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
I’m a Texas Holdem Man
