Il Testo della canzone di:
Ace In The Hole – Bobby Darin Feat Johnny Mercer

[Johnny:]
This town is full of guys
who think they're mighty wise
just because they know a thing or two.

[Bobby:]
You'll meet them night and day
strollin' up and down Broadway
telling of the wonders they can do.

[Johnny:]
Oh, sing it, Bobby boy!

[Bobby:]
I just did!

[Johnny:]
There's con men and there's boosters.

[Bobby:]
There's card sharks and crapshooters.

[Johnny:]
They congregate around the Metropole.

[Bobby:]
If I knew what that meant I would agree with him.
They wear flashy ties and collars.

[Johnny:]
Yes, but where do they get there dollars?

[Both:]
They all have got an ace down in the hole.

[Johnny:]
Yes, and some of them write
to the old folks for coin
and that is their ace in the hole.

[Bobby:]
And others have friends on the old Tenderloin
that's their old ace in the hole.

[Johnny:]
Why, they'll tell you of trips
that they're going to make
from Florida
to the North Pole.

[Bobby:]

just like a chum playin' stud.

[Both:]

[Bobby:]

[Johnny:]
But, I want to sing tenor!

[Bobby:]

[Johnny:]
Listen too 'em, I think I make it better than he does.

[Bobby:]
Well, that's the nastiest remark I've ever heard.

[Both:]
Listen now, if you don't like the way I sing, why don't you sing
I think...
Sing Melancholy Baby! Sing something!

[Bobby:]
Why they tell you of the trips
they're gonna make
over to Florida
all the way up to the North Pole.

[Johnny:]
Oh, it's sad, sad.

[Bobby:]
Volare!!

[Johnny:]
But, their names would be mud.

[Bobby:]
Like a chump playin' stud.

[Both:]
If they lost
that old ace
ace in the hole.

[Bobby:]
Have another drink.
