[00:52.17]The curfew had been lifted and the gamblin' wheel shut down, [00:56.48]Anyone with any sense had already left town. [00:59.93]He was standin' in the doorway lookin' like the jack of hearts. [01:07.99]He moved across the mirrored room, set it up for everyone, he said, [01:15.76]Then everyone commenced to do what they were doin' before he turned their heads. [01:22.97]then he walked up to a stranger and he asked him with a grin, [01:27.27]could you kindly tell me, friend, what time the show begins? [01:31.03]Then he moved into the corner, face down like the jack of hearts. [01:39.19]Backstage the girls were playin' five-card stud by the stairs, [01:46.85]Lily had two queens, she was hopin' for a third to match her pair. [01:54.46]Outside the streets were fillin' up, the window was open wide, [01:58.21]A gentle breeze was blowin', you could feel it from inside. [02:02.17]Lily called another bet and drew up the jack of hearts. [02:09.98]Big jim was no one's fool, he owned the town's only diamond mine, [02:17.34]He made his usual entrance lookin' so dandy and so fine. [02:24.85]With his bodyguards and silver cane and every hair in place, [02:28.95]He took whatever he wanted to and he laid it all to waste. [02:32.46]But his bodyguards and silver cane were no match for the jack of hearts. [02:40.82]Rosemary combed her hair and took a carriage into town, [02:48.28]She slipped in through the side door lookin' like a queen without a crown. [02:55.89]She fluttered her false eyelashes and whispered in his ear, [02:59.95]sorry, darlin', that i'm late, but he didn't seem to hear. [03:03.40]He was starin' into space over at the jack of hearts. [03:11.46]i know i've seen that face before, big jim was thinkin' to himself, [03:19.27]maybe down in mexico or a picture up on somebody's shelf. [03:26.33]But then the crowd began to stamp their feet and the house lights did dim [03:30.64]And in the darkness of the room there was only jim and him, [03:34.55]Starin' at the butterfly who just drew the jack of hearts. [03:42.31]Lily was a princess, she was fair-skinned and precious as a child, [03:49.76]She did whatever she had to do, she had that certain flash every time she smiled. [03:57.23]She'd come away from a broken home, had lots of strange affairs [04:01.23]With men in every walk of life which took her everywhere. [04:04.78]But she'd never met anyone quite like the jack of hearts. [04:12.55]The hangin' judge came in unnoticed and was being wined and dined, [04:20.26]The drillin' in the wall kept up but no one seemed to pay it any mind. [04:27.37]It was known all around that lily had jim's ring [04:31.57]And nothing would ever come between lily and the king. [04:35.43]No, nothin' ever would except maybe the jack of hearts. [04:43.24]Rosemary started drinkin' hard and seein' her reflection in the knife, [04:50.45]She was tired of the attention, tired of playin' the role of big jim's wife. [04:57.81]She had done a lot of bad things, even once tried suicide, [05:02.01]Was lookin' to do just one good deed before she died. [05:05.67]She was gazin' to the future, riding on the jack of hearts. [05:13.48]Lily took her dress off, buried it away. [05:20.59]has your luck run out? she laughed at him, [05:22.54]well, i guess you must have known it would someday. [05:28.25]Be careful not to touch the wall, there's a brand-new coat of paint, [05:32.10]I'm glad to see you're still alive, you're lookin' like a saint. [05:35.86]Down the hallway footsteps were comin' for the jack of hearts. [05:43.52]The backstage manager was pacing all around by his chair. [05
