“Flowers on the Wall” by the Statler Brothers (1965) contains a line about “playing solitaire until dawn with a pack of 51.”

From The Eagles’ Desperado:

Don’t you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She’ll beat you if she’s able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can’t get
