[father, spoken]
you got your royal flush, your straight flush, four-of-a-kind; full house, flush, straight, three-of-a-kind; two pair, one pair, and high card least of all. which never hardly wins the pot. not when there’s more’n two playin’

[young vi, spoken]
what’s the pot?

[father, spoken]
we’ll get there

(sung)
first you set the ante
say a penny
then before the deal’s begun
we both ante up our pennies –
not too many, just the one

let’s see what your cards are –
all you got’s a
pair of queens and nothing more
once you bet, you get to draw some –
that’s what lots’a queens are for

a penny?
that’s a pair’a queens

a nickel?
there’s the bet i saw

i’ll see you. now fate intervenes –
some say things happen by design
by demand, decree, or law
i say most things fall in line
by the luck of the draw

a nickel is in this case
what you should bet
it’s a good bet, but i win

[young vi, spoken]
papa!

[father, spoken]
three-of-a-kind. three-of-a-kind beats two pair. now how much did i win from you?

[young vi, spoken]
eleven cents!

[father, spoken]
and 3.29 minus 11 cents is what?

[young vi, spoken]
three dollars, 18 cents

[father, spoken]
first step in teaching anything is to get your student’s attention. now, looky what ya got here:

(sung)
six and seven
then a nine and ten, no eight
what you do is ditch this four and
pray to heaven for a straight

first you got to bet though
maybe two bits
which i raise you by a dime
see i’m forcing you to match me
by a few bits at a time

[young vi]
i’m winning?

[father]
well, a straight can win

[young vi]
but will it?

[father]
there’s a famous saw
says you can’t win unless you’re in –
some say things happen by design
by demand, decree, or law
i say most things fall in line
by the luck of the draw

[young vi]
let’s stop this game right now, i’ve
put enough in

[father]
i was bluffn’, but i win

[young vi, spoken]
papa!

[father, spoken]
straight beats two pair. but you folded

[young vi, spoken]
i don’t even know the hands!

[father, spoken]
violet!

(sung)
you got your royal flush, your straight flush, your four-of-a-kind
a full house, a flush, ‘n’ a straight, ‘n’ a three-of-a-kind
two pair, one pair, and no pair at all
but high cards never won a pot, that i can recall

[young vi, spoken]
what’s the pot?

[father, spoken]
it’s what you ante into

[father & flick, spoken]
now how much did i win from you?
[young vi, spoken]
thirty-six cents! [monty, spoken]
gimme a break. this is s’posed to be a friendly game, not a k!lling.

[father, spoken]
and 3.18 minus 36 cents is what?

[young vi, spoken]
gimme the cards. i’m dealing this one!
[father]
you don’t know the game yet [flick]
that’s the way it’s played, brother

[young vi]
i can play it
first i deal a card or two

[monty]
flick’s gonna win

[young vi]
then i give you all my money

[monty]
clean us out
take all our change

[father & flick]
hate to say it, but it’s true

[father & monty]
guess i’ll open with a nickel
[young vi]
i will see that
and i’ll raise you straight away
[violet]
i’ll raise you straight away

[flick]
you got some guts

[young vi]
takin’ candy from a baby

[father & flick]
guess i’ll see ya

[men]
who taught you to play?

[father]
two cards

[young vi]
i guess you go first?

[father]
that’s right, kid

[young vi]
at your service, “pa”
now my card – hope my luck’s reversed

[young vi & violet]
some say things happen by design
by demand, decree, or law
i say most things fall in line
by the luck of the draw

[monty, spoken]
you got to bet to win

[young vi & violet]
dee dee dee dee – dime

[father & monty, spoken]
see ya

[flick, spoken]
see, and raise

[monty, spoken]
whose play is it?

[young vi, spoken]
you watch out!

[flick, spoken]
must be hers

[father, spoken]
whatcha get?

[all]
some say things happen by design
by demand, decree, or law
i say most things fall in line
by the luck of the draw

[father]
call

[monty]
kings

[flick]
straight

[young vi]
flush

[monty]
by the luck of the draw

[father, spoken]
baby, that is a

[father & violet, spoken]
royal flush

[flick]
by the luck of the draw

[young vi, spoken]
is that good?

[violet]
by the luck of the draw

[father & monty, spoken]
i’ll be d-mned

[all]
by the luck of the draw!
