Subject: RE: NEED LYR: Ace Down in the Hole-NOT G.Straits
Here's a bit of it. Can't remember any more just now...

This town is full of guys, Who think they're mighty wise
just because they know a think or two
you can see them every day, strolling up and down Broadway
Telling of the wonders they can do

You'll see wise guys and boosters, card sharps and crap shooters
they congregate around the metropole
they wears those flashy ties and collars but where they get their dollars
why they've all got and ace down in the hole

Now some of them write to the old folks at home
and that's their old ace down in the hole
while others have girls on that old spending line
and thats their old ace down in the hole
