rovin' gambler

i am the rovin' gambler

i've gambled all around

whenever i meet with the deck of cards

i lay my money down

i lay my money down

i lay my money down

had not been in frisco many more weeks than three

yea i met up with a pretty little girl

she fell in love with me

fell in love with me

fell in love with me

she took me to her parlor

she cooled me with her fan

whispered low in her mother's ear i love this gamblin' man"
