[00:00.76]Deck of Cards - Wink Martindale
[00:08.80]During the north african campaign
[00:10.19]A bunch of soldier boys had
[00:11.52]Been on a long hike
[00:13.09]
[00:13.68]And they arrived in
[00:14.31]A little town called Casino
[00:16.36]
[00:17.83]The next morning being sunday
[00:19.33]
[00:20.10]Several of the boys went to church
[00:21.69]
[00:22.95]A sergeant commanded the boys
[00:24.30]In church and after the chaplain
[00:26.81]Had read the prayer
[00:27.80]
[00:28.71]The text was taken up next
[00:30.29]
[00:31.65]Those of the boys
[00:32.36]Who had a prayer book took them out
[00:33.75]But this one boy had only
[00:36.19]A deck of cards
[00:36.96]And so he spread them out
[00:38.91]
[00:40.39]The sergeant saw the cards and said
[00:42.10]
[00:42.91]Soldier put away those cards
[00:45.20]
[00:46.40]After the services was over
[00:47.62]
[00:48.49]The soldier was taken prisoner and
[00:49.82]Brought before the provost marshall
[00:51.92]
[00:53.51]The marshall said
[00:54.51]Sergeant why have you
[00:56.52]Brought this man here
[00:57.54]
[00:58.59]For playing cards in church sir
[01:00.07]
[01:01.21]And what have you to say for
[01:02.23]Yourself son much sir
[01:04.91]Replied the soldier
[01:05.85]
[01:07.18]The marshall said
[01:08.33]I hope so for if not I shall
[01:10.95]Punish you more than
[01:11.89]Any man was ever punished
[01:13.53]
[01:14.97]The soldier said
[01:15.98]Sir I have been on the march
[01:18.07]For about six days
[01:19.19]
[01:20.12]I have neither a bible nor a prayer book
[01:21.91]
[01:22.70]But I hope to satisfy
[01:23.73]You sir with the purity of my intentions
[01:26.22]
[01:27.31]And with that the boy
[01:28.68]Started his story
[01:29.79]
[01:31.09]You see sir when I look at the ace
[01:33.35]
[01:34.31]It reminds me that there
[01:35.35]Is but one god
[01:36.31]
[01:37.59]And the deuce reminds me
[01:38.47]That the bible is divided into
[01:40.40]Two parts the old and the new testaments
[01:43.46]
[01:44.68]When I see the trey
[01:45.56]
[01:46.36]I think of the father the son
[01:48.13]And the holy ghost
[01:49.21]
[01:50.45]And when I see the four
[01:51.61]
[01:52.56]I think of the four evangelists
[01:53.75]Who preached the gospel
[01:55.29]
[01:56.48]There was matthew
[01:57.69]Mark luke and john
[01:59.10]
[02:00.52]And when I see the five
[02:01.51]
[02:02.30]It reminds me of the five
[02:03.54]Wise virgins who trimmed
[02:04.92]Their lamps there were ten of them
[02:07.85]Five were wise and were saved
[02:09.47]
[02:10.61]Five were foolish and were shut out
[02:12.29]
[02:13.72]When I see the six
[02:14.54]
[02:15.41]It reminds me that in six days
[02:17.20]God made this great heaven and earth
[02:19.13]
[02:20.18]When I see the seven
[02:21.01]
[02:22.13]It reminds me that on the seventh day
[02:23.69]God rested from his great work
[02:25.44]
[02:26.90]And when I see the eight
[02:27.84]
[02:28.58]I think of the eight righteous persons
[02:30.14]God saved when he destroyed this earth
[02:32.52]
[02:33.58]There was noah his wife
[02:35.62]Their sons and their wives
[02:37.11]
[02:37.63]And when I see the nine
[02:38.95]
[02:40.20]I think of the lepers our savior cleansed
[02:42.32]And nine out of the ten didn't
[02:44.63]Even thank him
[02:45.56]
[02:46.98]When I see the ten
[02:47.78]
[02:48.86]I think of the ten commandments god
[02:50.48]Handed down to moses
[02:51.37]On a table of stone
[02:52.71]
[02:53.88]When I see the king
[02:54.80]It reminds me that there is
[02:55.97]But one king of heaven god almighty
[02:58.85]
[03:00.20]And when I see the queen
[03:01.20]
[03:02.04]I think of the blessed virgin mary
[03:03.74]Who is queen of heaven
[03:04.96]
[03:05.94]And the jack or knave is the devil
[03:07.41]
[03:08.65]When I count the number
[03:09.38]Of spots on a deck of cards
[03:11.40]I find 365 the number of days in a year
[03:15.67]
[03:16.89]There are 52 cards
[03:18.27]
[03:19.02]The number of weeks in a year
[03:20.48]
[03:21.33]There are 4 suits the
[03:22.05]Number of weeks in a month
[03:23.70]
[03:24.77]There are 12 picture cards the number of
[03:27.57]Months in a year there are 13 tricks
[03:30.58]The number of weeks in a quarter
[03:32.30]
[03:34.14]So you see sir
[03:35.43]
[03:36.19]My pack of cards serves me as a bible
[03:38.38]
[03:39.04]An almanac and a
[03:40.82]Prayer book
[03:41.45]
[03:42.14]And friends the story is true I know
[03:45.16]
[03:46.43]I was that soldier
[03:47.43]
