Dick Curless - Roving Gambler Lyrics

I am a roving gambler I've gambled all around
Wherever I meet with the deck of cards I lay my money down
I lay my money down lay my money down

I've gambled down in Washington I've gambled over in Spain
And I'm goin' down to Georgia to gamble my last game

Hadn't been in Washington for many more day than three
When I fell in love with a pretty little girl and she fell in love with me
Fell in love with me fell in love with me

She took me in her parlor she cooled me with her fan
She whispered low in her mother's ears I love that gambling man

Daughter oh dear daughter how could you treat me so
To leave your dear old mother and with the gambler go
With the gambler go with the gambler go

She wouldn't marry a railroad man I'll tell you the reason why
I've never seen a railroad man that would tell his wife a lie

She wouldn't marry a farmer he's always in the rain
The man she wants to marry wears the great big gold watch chain
Great big gold watch chain great big gold watch chain

See the train a comin' she's comin' round the curve
A whistlin' and a blowin' and a streamin' every nerve

She said oh dear morther I'll tell you if I can
If you ever see me comin' back I'll be with the gambling man
With the gambling man with the gambling man

Well I am a roving gambler I've gambled all around
Wherever I meet with the deck of cards I lay my money down
I lay my money down I lay my money down
