Aces and Twos Lyrics

Verse
In my dreams I laugh and smoke
Everybody screams when I tell them jokes
Well now I like to gamble but I sure don't ever lose
Got a closet full of pin striped three piece suits

Chorus
I tell ya now, I pull aces
You pull twos
Come on now, when I wake up I don't know what to do

Verse
I battle demons in the dead of the night
I don't come home until the sun shines bright
Well now I walk with Jesus
Is he walking with me?
So hard to tell when everybody's on the same streets

Chorus
I tell ya now, I pull aces
He pulls twos
Come on now, when I wake up I don't know what to do

Verse
I drive a Cadillac a million miles long
In the back you can't hear my radio on
I only woke up to give a spoonful to you
But in my dreams a spoonful sure won't do

Chorus
I tell ya now, I pull aces
He does too
Come on now, when I wake up I don't know what to do

Verse
I battle demons in the dead of the night
I don't come home until the sun shines bright
I walk with Jesus
Is he walking with me?
It's so hard to tell when everybody's on the same streets

Chorus
I tell ya now, I pull aces
He does too
Come on now, when I wake up I don't know what to do

The Devil Makes Three is an Americana band from Santa Cruz, California, United States. The group blends bluegrass, old time, country, folk, blues, jazz, and ragtime music. The group's members are guitarist Pete Bernhard, upright bassist Lucia Turino, and guitarist and tenor banjo player Cooper McBean.

“The rhythm is what our band is about." Says Pete Bernhard: Guitarist, Front Man. The Devil Makes Three are quite possibly the best band that you have never heard of. They have been constantly on tour, selling out dates across the country and in their neck of the woods on the West Coast drawing near capacity crowds nightly. This is all word of mouth. Over the years, the Devil Makes Three have garnered fans the old school way, playing a city, making friends, conquering fans and moving on.

Laced with elements of ragtime, blues, country, folk and rockabilly, the critically praised, drummer-less trio - consisting of Vermont native, guitarist/front man Pete Bernhard, stand-up bassist Lucia Turino and guitarist Cooper McBean, also of rural Vermont - brings forth a genuine approach to acoustic music. The sound is deeply steeped in rhythm and alive with three part harmonies, while keeping a slightly punk aesthetic to their music and especially their live shows.

Note: the following songs belong to a different band with the same name, a small local metal band from Northern Ireland:
