Gamblin’ Man
I am a gambling man, I am
A gambling man is me
Been gambling since my time began
A gambler I’ll always be
It’s in my bones
It’s in my blood
Runs in my family
I am a gambling man, I am
A gambling man is me
I spent it all on spinning wheels
Dealin’ cards and throwin’ dice
Then my brother yelled to me
You better quit that vicious vice
He said ‘You’ve lost and won a hefty sum
Finding an end without a means
Why is it you’ve never won
And gambled all your dreams’
I am a gambling man, I am
A gambling man is me
Been gambling since my time began
A gambler I’ll always be
It’s in my bones
It’s in my blood
Runs in my family
I am a gambling man, I am
A gambling man is me
I gambled a small fortune
Not got a penny to my name
I spun the wheel, didn’t get the deal
I played and lost the game
I prayed for it to end one day
Though no one heard my prayers
The devil always has his way
And always collects his fares
I am a gambling man, I am
A gambling man is me
Been gambling since my time began
A gambler I’ll always be
It’s in my bones
It’s in my blood
Runs in my family
I am a gambling man, I am
A gambling man is me
Well, I’m not a betting man
But I’ll tell you what I am
A gambling man, that I am
I am a gambling man
