The Gambler (Originally Performed by Kenny Rogers)(Vocal Version)
On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere
- On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere
- I met up with a gambler
- We were both too tired to sleep
- So we took turns a-starin' out the window at the darkness
- Till boredom overtook us and he began to speak
- He said son I've made a life out of readin' people's faces
- And knowin' what their cards were
- By the way they held their eyes
- So if you don't mind my sayin'
- I can see you're out of aces
- For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice
- So I handed him my bottle and
- He drank down my last swallow
- Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light
- And the night got deathly quiet
- And his face lost all expression
- Said if you're gonna play the game boy
- You gotta learn to play it right
- You got to know when to hold
- 'Em know when to fold 'em
- Know when to walk away and know when to run
- You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table
- There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done
- Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
- Is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to keep
- 'Cause every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser
- And the best that
- You can hope for is to die in your sleep
- And when he finished speakin'
- He turned back towards the window
- Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep
- And somewhere in the darkness the gambler he broke even
- But in his final words
- I found an ace that I could keep
- You got to know when to hold
- 'Em know when to fold 'em
- Know when to walk away and know when to run
- You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table
- There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done
- You got to know when to hold 'em when to hold 'em
- Know when to fold 'em when to fold 'em
- Know when to walk away and know when to run
- You never count your money
- When you're sittin' at the table
- There'll be time enough for countin'
- When the dealing's done
- You got to know when to hold
- 'Em know when to fold 'em
- Know when to walk away and know when to run
- You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table
- There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done
