Daniel Johnston - Don't play cards with Satan (Live) video free download
Daniel Johnston performing "Don't play cards with Satan" on organ
Lyrics:
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
(please believe me)
Did I ever stop and tell you
I am a desperate man
I thought I saw a bluebird
Sitting on a post
I thought I saw a bluebird
Sitting on a post
Shiver down my spine
I thought it was the Holy Ghost
I heard the word before
And I knew that it was good
I heard the word before
And I knew that it was good
Somebody oughta do
Like the good book should
I heard the voice of SATAN
Crying in the woods
I heard the voice of SATAN
Crying in the woods
I saw my own heart
Laying black with blood
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
Don't play cards with Satan
He'll deal you an awful hand
(please believe me)
Did I ever stop and tell you
I am a desperate man
A desperate man
Take it
SATAN! SATAN! SATAN!

The few ending notes after he held up the frog picture shows that in all of his pain Daniel STILL has a sense of humor. I guess laughter is pain medication.11 years ago

I hate when people say he is bad musician based on his performances. He may not have the vocal ability of Robert Plant and he may not be able to play instruments very well, but the whole point of his music is that he is able to pour out his emotions. Not many people can write the poetry in the songs he writes that capture such pure human emotion we can all relate to. He is a great Songwriter for sure. He is sincere and this is his way of going on in a troubled life.Related Videos
