Artist/Band: Carly Simon
Lyrics for Song: Riverboat Gambler
Lyrics for Album: Another Passenger [1976]



Riverboat gambler

Drinking alone on the prow

Chasing your Bourbon with Tennessee gin

The big game's about to begin



Riverboat gambler

Hiding that ace up your sleeve

I can see through all that debonaire style

The irony bending your smile



And I won't tip your hand

I won't do you in

I want to stay near you

I want you to win

Want you to win



Riverboat gambler

You can defy all the odds

You can draw diamonds to fill out your flush

You can find someone to trust



And I won't steal your chips

Well, I won't steal your pride

Won't you take me on faith

Won't you let me inside

Let me inside



Riverboat gambler

Under all velvet and lace

You're an old vagabond, I'm a poor waif

Let's make a place that's safe



Riverboat gambler

Come on and let me inside

Let me inside
