Lyrics:

These are heavy times
So won't you show your hand
I don't mean kiss and tell
I'm such a jealous man

I throw a flush
I reveal my ace
The heart's my trump
I don't need no picture face
I'm laying my cards out on the table place
Won't you take my hand

Won't you hold my hand now
These are heavy times

Won't you hold my hand now
These are heavy times

These are heavy times
All clamps and parking fines
Too much north and too much south
Too much of the knave versus the spades

I throw a flush
I reveal my ace
The heart's my trump
I don't need no picture face
I'm laying my cards out on the table place
Won't you take my hand

Won't you hold my hand now
These are heavy times

Won't you hold my hand now
These are heavy times

Oh these are heavy times

From a circus ring
To a band of gold
Sometimes there's safety nets
Sometimes but there's no golden rule

I throw a flush
I reveal my ace
The heart's my trump
I don't need no picture face
I'm laying my cards out on the table place
Won't you take my hand

Won't you hold my hand now
Won't you hold my hand now

Won't you hold my hand now
