The Gambler
The Gambler hothead
hmm... ohhh... hmmhmm... ohh... yeeeah... hothead!!
On a warm summer's evenin
on a train bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
so we took turns to stairrin out the window at the darkness, till boredom over took us and he begun to speak
He said 'son I've made a life, out of readin peoples faces
And knowing what their cards were by the way they held their eyes
So if you dont mind me saying, I can see you're out of aces
For the taste of your whisky, I'll give you some advice
So I handed him my bottle, and he drank down my last swallow
And he bummed a cigarrete, and asked me for a light
.and the night dark gettin quiet, and his face lost all expression
said if you 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, know when to run
You never count your money while sitting at the table, they will be time enough for
counting when the deal is done
Every gambler knows that the secret to surviving
Is knowing what to throw in and knowing what to keep

Cause every hand's a winner, and every hands a looser
and the best that you can hope for is to dyin to sleep, and when he finished speaking
he turned back towards the window
Crushed down his cigarette, faded off to sleep and somewhere in the darkness the
gambler, he broke even but in his final words I found
a message i could keep
repeat x3
You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em
Know when to walk away, know when to run
You never count your money while sitting at the table, they will be time enough for
counting when the deal is done
You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em
Know when to walk away, know when to run
You never count your money while sitting at the table, they will be time enough for
counting when the deal is done
You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em
Know when to walk away, know when to run
You never count your money while sitting at the table, they will be time enough for
counting when the deal is done
