The Gambler lyrics

Hey mister gimme back them dice

You're holding all the green but you're gonna lose a slice

Rock and roll bless my soul, my wallet's gettin' thinner

Sevens up, thank you Lord, now you're looking at a winner

Cos I'm a member of a gamblin' breed.

And when the actions hot, it gets me all I need

So if you find me in our town, won't you lay your money down?

It's satisfaction guaranteed

You get heaven, you'll get hell

There ain't no way for you to tell with a gamblin' man

Hey mama give me one more ace

I'm looking at a knave and he's laughing in my face

Raise the pot bet the lot we could all be dead tomorrow

I got an edge on the ledge not another man will follow

Cos I'm a member...

I said I'm a gambler, there's no question of that

But I never gamble on a woman, that's a matter of fact

Just ain't no predictin', which way their love will roll

One moment they're red hot - the next they're icy cold

Oh Lord, have mercy, give what wheel a spin

It's takin' candy from a baby in the mood I'm in

Rock and roll bless my soul, my wallet's lookin' healthy

Easy come, easy go, I never wanted to be wealthy

Just a paid up member of a gamblin' breed

And when the actions hot it gets me all I need

So if you find me in your town won't you lay your money down?

It's satisfaction guaranteed

You get heaven, you'll get hell there ain't no way for you to tell

With a gamblin' man

Lay your money down
