Eric Clapton - Little Queen Of Spades Lyrics






She is a little queen of spades
And the men will not let her be.
Said she is a little queen of spades
And the men will not let her be.
Everytime she make a spread,
Oh fair brown, cold chills run all over me.

Gonna get me a gambling woman
If it's the last thing that I do.
Gonna get me a gambling woman
If it's the last thing that I do.
A man don't need a woman,
Oh fair brown, that he got to give all of his money to.

Everybody said you got a mojo,
'Cause baby, you've been using that stuff.
Everybody said you got a mojo
Baby, you've been using that stuff.
Got a way trimming down,
Oh fair brown, and I mean it's most too tough.

Little girl, since I am the king,
Baby, and you is the queen,
Little girl, since I am the king,
Baby, and you is the queen,
Let us put our heads together,
Oh fair brown, and we can make our money green.

    Really wish EC had turned up more for the last

  23. A.... A....

    Dereck is a MONSTER. It's already a legend.....

  24. J.... M....

    Is Doyle playing a left handed guitar strung backwards? It appears the high E is at the top of the fretboard....

  25. E.... M....

    It was my privilege to see this same line-up on the first night of the tour in 2006 in Glasgow.

    E.... M....

    (minus the extra drummer... and with a horn section and Michelle and Sharon on backing v's)

  26. c.... ....

    M.... I....

    .
    Eric Clapton needs to do a song with Migos

  30. J.... L....

    master of the stratocaster

  31. a.... s....

    IMMENSO ERIC CLAPTON

  32. g.... g....

    One hell of a band.

  33. a.... ....

    I’ve watched this video at least 50 times. It just get’s better and better. The musicianship is stunning, the performance heartfelt, and, seriously, Derek Trucks is just at another level... and this was 11 years ago! What really blows my mind is how Chris Stainton just about steals the show with his piano-pounding performance. God, what I’d give to see these guys give a whole performance live. And then there’s Bill Murray at the end... my feelings exactly!

  34. m.... ....

    THAT's the way to do it.................................!!!!!!

    And don't you just LOVE Eric's appreciative smile at Chris Stainton's energetic keyboard solo ?

  35. R.... ....

    That was the most. Kick ass arrangement I have ever heard. Unbelievable!!!

  36. S.... K....

    Many great guitarists. Arguing the best is silly. Enjoy what you get to hear.

  37. a.... ....

    Would not want to be Robbie Robertson walking on after that!

  38. a.... ....

    Absolutely monumental...

  39. M.... P....

    Why is bramhall even there? I mean what does he add to this??? Other than his solo, what the hell is he doing there?

    M.... P....

    He's actually giving a great accompaniment to the song, since Eric is mostly playing lead and not too much rythm at some parts

  40. a.... ....

    Can’t helping feeling sorry for Robbie Robertson... imagine having to come on after this!

  41. K.... M....

    godamn they grow em good in tejas !!! claptons not bad either

  42. K.... M....

    i think i forgot about ec for a moment holy shit !!! the man is amzing

  43. c.... s....

    Derek is like Freddie King, you know who's playing at the first note

  44. K.... M....

    eloquent phrasing by Doyle , insane song !!!

  45. A.... D....

    Simply a Master!!!

  46. T.... P....

    Uno più bravo dell'altro. Con un assolo sorprendente del pianista

  47. J.... P....

    People don't forget claptons band deserve a mention , Clapton needs them as much as they need him to produce this

  48. g.... ....

    My boss said to me one day "Clapton plays same shit all the time. All his solos are the same!! Well he can suck my baws cause byfuck Eric nailed his same triplets again and again on this song! What an intro!! Can anyone do this anymore. 🤔

    g.... ....

    C'tin Imbécile ton boss. Pis dis-y, y'é trop cave pour le savoir!!!!! If you answer me someday, for you to understand what i'm saying....... Cause this is en Québécois.I'll translante it ok? You might be laughing of it . Salut.

  49. A.... P....

    Claptons tone. No more words need to be said!

  50. J.... F....

    absolutely Perfect !!!

  51. s.... ....

    "baby since I am the King"...........

  52. T.... M....

    Must be tough singing a lyric like "Since I am the king" immediately after a Derek Trucks spectacular.

    T.... M....

    No. No it isn't. It's a song. A song that no one on stage wrote.
    There are no egos involved.
    What are you trying to say Trev?

    T.... M....

    Eat shit dick head....proves you dont get it

  53. J.... F....

    10:55 favorite loop ♥

  54. N.... ....

    Chris Stainton has usefully proportioned opposable thumbs doesn't he.
    And oh, the man can play!

  55. V.... M....

    Best Derek solo ever!!!!

  56. S.... S....

    still amazing

  57. N.... ....

    I love this and so am going to be foolhardy enough to stick my two pennies' worth in.
    (But have to qualify: Clapton came as a revelation to me and brought my attention to non classical music also. He fired me up and I discovered all sorts, since when I've been listening and listening and listening. After a bit I became a professional drummer).
    Chris Stainton is a pure spirit. Derek Trucks has an awesome control of a filthy, near blasphemous slide.
    But also;
    Take a closer look as Doyle Bramhall (the whatever). No, it's not WOW in terms of ups and downs dynamically, but each note is well chosen, in a place selected for it, with a tone he chose to choose. There doesn't seem to be any "this is what I know I can do and so I will".
    There is not much obvious stage presence either; he looks at his guitar, he looks at his fingers. From afar it must look like he's looking just beyond his feet, and what a crowd pleaser that isn't. Occasionally he looks at the band for empathy (one of whom happens to be EC, but that's bye-the-bye and neither of their fault). There is nothing fast. It's understated, so listen carefully. His phrasing isn't obvious. But it is lyrical. What he sustains and what he clips off short. And here is the crunch point: it's the only time he'll play it.
    So, here's for the guy we missed!!

  58. m.... ....

    Blistering opening, go EC!

  59. J.... S....

    Only two words can describe this performance: BLUES POWER!!!

  60. a.... ....

    I meant to say that this may be the top blues recording in my lifetime. And I have seen many of the great ones. Thank you Eric.

  61. a.... ....

    this may be one of the best blues display every recorded by anyone anytime. Thank you Eric.

    a.... ....

    Thank you Eric AND CO!

  62. o.... ....

    Clapton was God in 1965.........nothing has changed.

    o.... ....

    only diffrence Is he dont play an les paul through marshalls but rather an fender today.

    o.... ....

    lol.......true dat

    o.... ....

    omeletpants .. yah... just lovin that name

    o.... ....

    J FM Um what about his voice. be careful..you are surrounded

    o.... ....

    Now we just have to wait to the idiot that says" j1m1 killed g0d"

  63. D.... J....

    The keyboard soloing in harmonic minor while everyone else is doin 12 bar pentatonic.... Bold.

    D.... J....

    That is so cool! Thanks so much for pointing that out, I would never have known.

    D.... J....

    Yes, Stainton is fantastic as is everyone...

    D.... J....

    Goes against the whole blues feel..

    D.... J....

    Please could you unpack that a bit? Apart from hearing and feeling the difference, what else does what you said mean?

    D.... J....

    Hah right I was just thinking that

  64. D.... J....

    That first solo....

  65. o.... ....

    could you play the blues better than this?

  66. H.... A....

    The best blues song I ever heard.

  67. g.... l....

    Gary Laubscher, I agree with Bev Lee , REALLY GREAT STUFF!!! I am 66 & Clapton has been my fav but Derek is really coming on strong, Bonamassa is really good but a little too glitzy for me, love Derek is a bit more humble

  68. A.... S....

    felt same as bill murray in the end. What a great performance!

  69. A.... ....

    that intro doe

  70. r.... 1....

    Clapton just killed it in the opening two and half min intro of this song. The other two can just watch in awe of the legend

    r.... 1....

    AMEN TO THAT!!

  71. F.... P....

    I, who always listen to the MASTER,s blues playing, agree with was saying: The bestes of perform of "Little Queen of Spade"; since my 68 years , I,ve think ,this is the Bestest Blues Perform of ::ERIC CLAPTON, ; the GURU of the Blues....Thank you , Belinleeelo,b for uploading this video!!

  73. B.... ....

    Each & Every Solo, Blues at its best!!! Derek Trucks... Wowwww Awesome. Goosebumps 😄

  75. r.... 1....

  76. N.... S....

  85. J.... ....

    A lesson in electric blues from the Master! No one does it better

  86. R.... C....

    This guy is unbelievable . He is definitely the best blues guitarist of his generation No one comes close. Possibly. Joe Bonamassa but that's about it. I don't think anyone will R

    R.... C....

    DudE listen to Clapton's cover of crossroads

    R.... C....

    +Ray Cali You need to check out Derek Trucks stuff, no he is not EC but he is really good.

    R.... C....

    Both are,,,,,,,,,, One of a kind, Check-out Further on up the road on YT. WOW!!!!!!

  87. R.... C....

    Eric. has a keen sense as far as being tasty and using the right key to play any song he chooses

  88. R.... C....

    Simply the best. Just totally Awesome

  89. S.... H....

    ""THE CLAPPER" an His Magic Fingers...WOW!!!!

  90. J.... ....

    A lesson in Electric Blues. I've heard this hundreds of times and I'm still awed at Clapton's abilities.

  91. t.... ....

    Eric Clapton's double take at the very end of Derek's solo says it all. Even made the hair on the back of his neck stand up.

  92. c.... ....

    Belinleeelo, magnificent post and gift to the rest of us who catch these on YT! Thank you a million times.
    Something I noticed on about the 600th time I played this was at about 7:50 Doyle's name is listed on the screen as Derek. Don't know if you have any control over that or not but for what it's worth... It sure does not detract from the astounding performances or the take-away experience. Thanks again, so much!!!

  93. r.... ....

    thats as close to Albert King as you are gonna get nowadays .
