I wanna hold 'em like they do in Texas plays
Fold 'em, let 'em, hit me, raise it baby stay with me (I love it)
Love Game intuition play the cards with spades to start
And after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh,
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
[Chorus]
Can't read my,
Can't read my,
No he can't read my poker face
(She's got me like nobody)
Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face
(She is gonna let nobody)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
P p p poker face, p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
I wanna roll with him a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you're with me (I love it)
Russian Roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby when it's love, if its not rough it isn't fun, fun
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh,
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
[Chorus]
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
I won't tell you that I love you
Kiss or hug you
Cause I'm bluffing with my muffin
I'm not lying I'm just stunning with my love glue gunnin'
Just like a chick in the casino
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, promise this
Check this hand cause I'm marvelous
[Chorus: x3]
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
(She is gonna let nobody)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
P p p poker face, p p p poker face
(Muh muh muh muh)
Fold 'em, let 'em, hit me, raise it baby stay with me (I love it)
Love Game intuition play the cards with spades to start
And after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh,
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got
[Chorus]
Can't read my,
Can't read my,
No he can't read my poker face
(She's got me like nobody)
Can't read my
Can't read my
No he can't read my poker face

The general meaning of this song maybe that loving someone but not showing it, and hiding your emotions, “I won’t tell you that I love you”; just like how life is a game, it involves risks and how sometimes you just want to keep your secrets.
Another interpretation that I got from this song is that she is desperate for sex. The line “I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got,” kind of gave me idea that she might be about having or wants sex with this guy she likes.
Soon, I finally got the full and deeper interpretation of this song, which I think it’s really interesting, that she is poker facing with her sexuality. The gambling parts are just a metaphor for her making the males believe that she is interested in them, when in reality she is lesbian or bisexual. She hides her sexuality really well behind her poker face and shielding herself. “And after he’s been hooked I’ll play the one that’s on his heart,” shows that she is just messing around with guy that she just met or her boyfriend. “No he can’t read my poker face,” and “she is gonna let nobody,” mean that she might be in a relationship or having sex with this guy while she is thinking of the girl that she secretly has a crush on, but yet the guy doesn’t know because of her poker face.
This song is not really about poker or gambling. It is about how promiscuous love is a like a gamble.
