Deck The Halls
April Caballero 1965 (illinois)
The Kings all come,
when the Queens do call,
As the Jokers laugh,
down the castles halls.
With echo clank of the stealy swords
Jack now becomes the bridal Lord.
Come what may,
the hand we are dealt,
The heart will club the diamond route.
The Kings will roar as the Queens give play,
Pairing the dance apond every black spade.
Joker partakes to snatch the goal,
As laughter his still rings of mighty walls.
