Cards of Love Songtext
von Simon & Garfunkel

Shang-a lang-a lang
(Shang-a lang-a lang, shang-a lang-a lang shang-a lang-a lang)

Sha-la-la-la la-la-la-la
Oop–dee–ooh shower top
Sha-la-la-la la-la-la-la
Oop–dee–ooh shower top
Sha-la-la-la la-la-la-la
Oop–dee–ooh shower top
Cards of love.

Jack (jack, jack)
Queen (queen, queen)
King (king, king)
Cards of love.

I was king; you were queen.
Jack stepped in—in between.
I loved you; you loved me.
Cards of love.


Jack came into our game;
Broke your heart—it was plain.
He tells me out of the
Cards of love.

I really loved that queen.
But she tells me, oh so mean,
When I asked her for her hand,
Jack stepped in with the wedding band.

When I came home, she wasn′t there.
And now I'm playing solitaire.
No more king; no more queen.
Cards of love.

Jack (jack, jack)
Queen (queen, queen)
No (no, no) no more King.
Oop-dee-ooh! shower top.

Oh-woh-oh-oh-oh-oh! yeah!
(repeat and fade)
