"Jokers Are Wild" lyrics - GENE CLARK

She was the queen of my heart for awhile
Moonlight, satin and wine
Holding the love of a woman much younger than I
And I was king in her life for awhile
Love often changes it's mind
I always thought that the king takes the queen every time
But jokers were wild
When jokers are wild
Kings can get lonely
The queen's gonna' hide that look in her eyes
You'll never see a heart goin' crazy
But you'll lose a queen every time
The jokers are wild
A promise can die in the cold light of day
Wishes don't always come true
But how can it be that a king lost a queen to a fool?
Jokers were wild
When jokers are wild
Kings can get lonely
The queen's gonna' hide that look in her eyes
You'll never see a heart goin' crazy
But you'll lose a queen every time
The jokers are wild
When jokers are wild
Kings can get lonely
Queens gonna' hide that look in her eyes
You'll never see a heart goin' crazy
But you'll lose a queen every time
The jokers are wild
Jokers are wild
