Jokers Are Wild - Gene Clark & Carla Olson, Gene Clark, Carla Olson

She was the queen of my heart for a while

Moonlight satin and wine

Holding the love of a woman much younger than I

And I was the king in her life for a while

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

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

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

Jokers are wild
