I am a roving gambler I gambled all around
Whenever I meet with a deck of cards
B F#
I lay my money down
B
Lay my money down, lay my money down
F#
I had not been in Washington many more weeks than three
I met up with a pretty little girl
B F#
She fell in love with me
B
Fell in love with me, fell in love with me
F#
She took me in her parlour, she cooled me with her fan
She whispered low in her mother’s ear
B F#
I love that gambling man
B
Love that gambling man, love that gambling man
F#
Oh daughter oh dear daughter how can you treat me so?
Leave your dear old mother
B F#
And with a gambler go
B
With a gambler go, with a gambler go
F#
My mother oh dear mother you can not understand
If you ever see me a coming back
B F#
I’ll be with a gambling man
B
With a gambling man, with a gambling man
F#
I left her here in El Paso and I wound up in Maine
I met up with a gambling man
B F#
Got in a poker game
B
Got in a poker game, got in a poker game
F#
We put our money in the pot and dealt the cards around
I saw him deal from the bottom of the deck
B F#
And I shot that gambler down
B
Shot the gambler down, shot the gambler down
F#
Well, now I’m in the jailhouse got a number for my name
The Warden said as he locked the door
B F#
You’ve gambled your last game
B
Gambled your last game, gambled your last game
F#
I am a roving gambler I gambled all around
Whenever I meet with a deck of cards
B F#
I lay my money down
B
Lay my money down, lay my money down
I am a roving gambler I gambled all around
Whenever I meet with a deck of cards
B F#

B
Lay my money down, lay my money down
