Rovin' Gambler
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler Lady fortune's my trade I am a rovin' gambler, I've gambled all around Wherever I meet with a deck o' cards, I lay my money down Lay my money down, lord, lay my money down Got a pretty little gal in New Orleans, her name is Mary Lou Though I ain't never seen her in fourteen years, she promised she'd be true Hey, poor old Mary Lou There's an old maid livin' in Abilene, her name is Paulee Anne She claims if she ever gets wed'd up, it's gonna be to a gamblin' man So long, Paulee Anne I am a rovin' gambler, I've gambled all around Wherever I meet with a deck o' cards, I lay my money down Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Lay my money down, lord, lay my money down Well, I never cheat at gamblin' cuz it makes some people sore But just in case I got an extra ace and a big long 44 A red hot 44! Now the preachers say that the gamblin' man is on the road to sin But every time that I start to quit That's when I start to win Lord, I rake that money in I am a rovin' gambler, I've gambled all around Wherever I meet with a deck o' cards, I lay my money down Lay my money down, lord, lay my money down Lay my money down!!!
