I'm a sailor of fate and fortune
And I go with the cards
If I turn up a Queen of Hearts
I send regards
You're the lady that luck has sent me
And I've finally won
Took one look at my hand
And knew the game was done
Before it had begun
Blackjack. Don't you dare push me
Blackjack. Stay with this hand
Your touch makes me a winner
Blackjack. Let the deal stand
I'm an Ace on the clean green velvet;
You're the Queen of the deck
There's no way we can lose
Although they'll check and double-check
So double down on the love you send me
And double up on the chips
'Cause I know there's a fortune
In your fingertips
Your face, your eyes, your lips
Blackjack. Don't you dare push me
Blackjack. Stay with this hand
Your touch makes me a winner
Blackjack. Let the deal stand
And I go with the cards
If I turn up a Queen of Hearts
I send regards
You're the lady that luck has sent me
And I've finally won
Took one look at my hand
And knew the game was done
Before it had begun
Blackjack. Don't you dare push me
Blackjack. Stay with this hand
Your touch makes me a winner
Blackjack. Let the deal stand
I'm an Ace on the clean green velvet;
You're the Queen of the deck
There's no way we can lose
Although they'll check and double-check
So double down on the love you send me
And double up on the chips
'Cause I know there's a fortune
In your fingertips
Your face, your eyes, your lips
Blackjack. Don't you dare push me
Blackjack. Stay with this hand
Your touch makes me a winner
Blackjack. Let the deal stand
