Mary Black - Shuffle Of The Buckled lyrics

The moon was full

And their hearts were empty

When I stopped to watch the river go down

Saw the gleaming eyes

On your blind two corners

Heard the Shuffle of the Buckled

As they come to lay their money down

Ooo not even with his money down

And he fades in the shadows

Of the walls of night in this town

He just fades in the shadows

Of the walls of night in this town

My heart was numb and my eyes stopped running

And the wind chilled my bones where I stopped

To watch that river go down

And the song on this street

Boasts no chest proud anthem

It's the shuffle of the buckled

As they come to lay their money down

Chorus

The moon was full

And their hearts were empty

When I stopped to watch the river go down

Ooo not even with his money down
