I have sung and prayed for our redemption
And Ive held up my guns and marched in revolution
But as the earth shook beneath I wondered
Where Id lay my head back down Oh they say the Queen of Spades will break your heart
And run away with all of your hard-earned money
But youll lay your head back down
And youll wish she slept beside you anyway Shell break your heart, but youll wish she slept beside you anyway I have raised the white flag of surrender
Over the fields where we buried sons and lovers
As the cannons flashed and thundered
As d**h came calling everybody home Oh they say the Queen of Spades will break your heart
And run away with all of your hard-earned money
But youll lay your head back down
And youll wish she slept beside you anyway Shell break your heart, but youll wish she slept beside you anyway
