    From a Jack to a King.

    From loneliness to a wedding ring.

    I played a Ace and I won a Queen,

    An' walked away with your heart.

    From a Jack to a King.

    With no regrets, I stacked the cards last night.

    And Lady Luck played her hand just right:

    You made me King of your heart.

    For just a little while, I thought that I might lose again.

    Then just in time, I saw the twinkle in your eye.

    From a Jack to a King.

    From loneliness to a wedding ring.

    I played a Ace and I won a Queen,

    You made me King of your heart.

    For just a little while, I thought that I might lose again.

    Then just in time, I saw the twinkle in your eye.

    From a Jack to a King.

    From loneliness to a wedding ring.

    I played a Ace and I won a Queen,

    You made me King of your heart.

    This may not be the version your after as the dates don't add up.

    My dad used to sing this years back, but the lyrics on this and the other answers don't seem 100% right to me

    From a jack to a king of loneliness to a wedding ring

    I've played a ace and I won the queen

    I walked away with your heart

    From a jack to a king

    With no regrets I stacked, I stacked the cards, I stacked the cards last night

    And lady luck played her hand just right

    You made me king of your heart

    Oh for just a little while I thought that I might lose the game

    Oh but just in time I saw that twinkle in your eyes

    From a jack to a king of loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring

    I played an ace and I won the queen

    You made me king of your heart

    For just a little while I thought that I might lose the game

    Oh but just in time I saw, I saw that twinkle in your eyes

    From a jack to a king from loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring

    I played an ace and I won the queen

    You made me king of your heart

    (Words & music: Ned Miller)

    Recorded: 1969/01/21, first released on Back in Memphis (From Memphis to Vegas)

    From a Jack to a King,

    From loneliness to a wedding ring,

    I played an ace and I won a queen,

    You made me queen of your heart.

    That's all I know of this one, and not sure if it's right!

    I went to www.lyricsdownload.com and entered it as a title and got 9 different artists who sing a similar song. Hope this helps!
