Are you ready for some more smooth guitar lines, half-time shuffles, funky bass lines, slick harmonies, real Fender Rhodes, tight horn sections and some California sunshine ... here's the second album by State Cows!
lyrics
Ace-to-five
Your declaration
The stakes are high
No calling station
The starting hand
You’re in command
Begin the master plan
This time, you’re gonna hold ‘em right
This time, it’s a big blind
This time, you’re on a rush tonight
Not for the weak
Here comes the showdown
The cards will speak
Slow roll in fold town
The second hand
You’re in command
Maintain the master plan
This time, you’re gonna hold ‘em right
This time, it’s a big blind
This time, you’re on a rush tonight
This time, prelogical mind
It’s not your game
You feel a head rush
Your claim to fame
Gone in a four flush
A crying call
You’ve lost it all
Pawn your car and bet once more
This time, you’re gonna hold ‘em right
This time, it’s a big blind
This time, you’re on a rush tonight
This time, prelogical mind

I discovered this album when catching up to the always accurate online Mixcloud radio show:
The Jazz Pit
Specifically, episode - 'Yacht Rock Pt. 2' which has "Winners" by Young Gun Sliver Fox open the show.
It immediately got my attention for it's quality in terms of pacing in that as a single it's not to fast but not to slow just the right riddim.
On, listening to that track and the host of The Jazz Pit declaring that the entire album is impressive lead me to purchase it. Your Mother
