From a Jack to a King

Hank Snow


From a jack to a king
From loneliness to a wedding ring
I played an ace and I won a queen
And walked away with your heart.

From a jack to a king
With no regrets I stackled the cards last night
And lady luck played her hand just right
To make me king of your heart.

For just a little while
I thought that I might lose the game
Then just in time I saw
The twinkle in your eye.

From a jack to a king
From loneliness to a wedding ring
I played an ace and I won a queen
You made me king of your heart.
