When the Queen came on the river
It made my royal flush
I did not want to raise you
Cos I love you so much
But I threw all my chips in
Expecting you to fold
You must've been a little crazy
What better hand could you hold?
Oh darling, I can't lay down
Let me lie with you
Let the King and Queen shake their crowns off
It'll be just us again
When the money came in my direction
I watched you walk the other way
I do not see you at the table
On this or any day
So I play with strangers
And I can be pretty mean
Well I don't owe them nothing
But I've sorry for that river Queen
Oh darling, I can't lay down
Let me lie with you
Let the King and Queen shake their crowns off
It'll be just us again

It's cool... Ms Casey is sort of the internet equivalent of friend from school :] I've been chatting with her intermittently on SoundCloud for a few years... I remember how excited she was to start setting up her home studio√ This is like going away to a different Jr. High & coming back for her graduation. Good people :] Glad to see you succeeding!

Joseph Houck is one of those rare songwriters. His songs capture all the mystery, longing, sadness, and simple joys of being alive. A truly special American voice. Pall of a Past World

The 2nd album from the fine couple contains 12 tracks over 49 minutes. The material for this album is a lot stronger and its very much an album that works very well from the first song to the last, with perhaps only "Tyburn Fair" letting it down slightly. The album flows like a fine wine with one track leading into the other as it transgresses along, and will have you coming back for more. It's very much a solid body of work with many classics along its path. I would recommend this album 100%. Lee Lucas
On his latest album, Angelo De Augustine pairs deceptively light arrangements with emotionally heavy subject matter. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 18, 2019
