Ace of Spades: Greatest Song Ever?
"Ace of Spades" by Motorhead
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
you win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
the Ace of Spades
the Ace of Spades
Playin' for the high one, dancin' with the devil
going with the flow, it's all a game to me
7 or 11, snake eyes watching you
Double up or quit, double stake or split
the Ace of Spades
the Ace of Spades
You know I'm born to lose
and gamblin's made for fools
But that's the way I like it baby
I don't want to live forever
and don't forget the joker
Pushing up the ante, I know you got to see me
read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be
the Ace of Spades
the Ace of Spades

1. Sadly, no...
The best song ever is "Martin Scorscese", by King Missile.



Although Lemmy might disagree.

3. Going to Brazil & Brave New World could be better Motorhead songs
But I can't really choose because I'm a Motorhead freak

4. None are better than "Nothin' Up My Sleeve" or "Overkill"
period.

6. "Goin' to Brazil" has killer guitar
What if Chuck Berry was a speed-freak?

5. I'm a huge Motorhead fan
But my favorite by them is their title song "Motorhead."

I was lucky to meet those guys a few years ago when Alan interviewed them for a local paper. They were totally nice and very cool.:thumbsup:
