I Am A Roving Gambler (Remastered 2017) Lyrics
I am a rovin' gambler
I've gambled all around
And wherever I see a deck of ca a ards
I lay my money down
Lay my money down
I lay my money down
I've gambled down in Washington
Ga ambled up in Maine
I'm headed down to Tenessee ee ee
To knock down my last game
Knock down my last game
To knock down my last game
I had not been in Washington
Many more weeks than three
When I fell in love with a pretty little ga a al
And she fell in love with me
Fell in love with me
She fell in love with me
She took me to her parlor
She cooled me with her fan
She whispered in her mother's e e ear
I love that gamblin' man
Love that gamblin' man
I love that gamblin' man
I wouldn't marry a railroad man
This is the reason why:
I've never seen a railroad ma a an
Wouldn't tell his wife a lie
Tell his wife a lie
Wouldn't tell his wife a lie
Oh Mother oh dear Mother
I'll tell you if I can:
If you ever see me comin' ba a ack
It'll be with a gamblin' man
Be with a gamblin' man
It'll be with a gamblin' man
I am a rovin' gambler
I've gambled all around
And wherever I see a deck of ca a ards
I lay my money down
Lay my money down
I lay my money down
And wherever I see a deck of ca a ards
I lay my money down
Lay my money down
Lay my money down
