Showboat Gambler (LP版)

Showboat Gambler (LP版) - England Dan & John Ford Coley

Tonight I'll board the Delta Queen

Abound for New Orleans

And again I'll get that feeling that I'm free

Her paddle wheels will churn

And her smoke stacks they will burn

And slowly I'll be carried to the sea

'Cause I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

I make my livin' on the run

I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

Big Muddy will always be my home

I know every river ship 'cause I've taken every trip

And I know every captain by his name

In the eyes of every man I can tell what's in his hand

I guess that I have played in every game

'Cause I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

I make my livin' on the run

I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

Big Muddy will always be my home

Tonight I'm a-sittin' here beneath a chandelier

There's a lady here to light my big cigar

And if luck will be my friend we'll be finished up by ten

And we'll be standin' on the decks beneath the stars

'Cause I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

I make my livin' on the run

I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

Big Muddy will always be my home

'Cause I'm a rambler a showboat gambler

I make my livin' on the run

I'm a rambler a showboat gambler
