Artist/Band: Brothers Four
Lyrics for Song: I am a Roving Gambler
Lyrics for Album: 36 All-time Folk favorites [2000]



I am a roving gambler

I've gamble all around

And wherever I see a deck of cards

I'll lay my money down

Lay my money down

I'll lay my money down.



I've gambled down in Washington

Gambled up in Maine

I'm headin' down to Tennessee

To knock down my last game

To knock down my last game

To knock down my last game.



I had not been in Washington

Many more weeks than three

When I fell in love with a pretty little gal

And she fell in love with me

Fell in love with me.

She fell in love with me.



She took me to her parlor

She cooled me with her fan

She whispered in her mother's ear

''I love that gambling man,

Love that gambling man

I love that gambling man.''



"I wouldn't marry a railroad man

This is the reason why

I never seen a railroad man

Wouldn't tell his wife a lie

Tell his wife a lie.

Wouldn't tell his wife a lie.''



''Oh mother, oh dear mother

I'll tell you if I can

If you ever see me coming back

It'll be with a gamblin' man

Be with a gamblin' man.

It'll be with a gamblin' man.''



I am a roving gambler

I've gamble all around

And wherever I see a deck of cards

I'll lay my money down

Lay my money down.

I'll lay my money down.



And when I see a deck of cards

I'll lay my money down

I'll lay my money down.

Lay my money down...
