Re: Soldier's Deck of Cards. Take a few min to watch.
Deck of Cards was written and recorded in 1948 by T Texas Tyler, real name David Luke Myrick, at the end of the song he says, this story is true I know I was that soldier, whether he was or not ????? your guess is as good as mine.
Everyone else that sang it was just copying him.
