The Gambler

Dans le style de

Kenny Rogers

Paroles

on a warm
summer's evenin'
on a train
bound for nowhere
i met up with a gambler
we were both
too tired to sleep

so we took
turns a-starin'
out the window
at the darkness
the boredom
overtook us and
he began to speak

he said
son i've made a life
out of readin'
people's faces
and knowin' what
the cards were
by the way
they held their eyes

so if you don't
mind my sayin'
i can see you're
out of aces
for a taste
of your whiskey
i'll give you
some advice

so i handed him
my bottle and
he drank down
my last swallow
then he bummed
a cigarette
and asked me
for a light

and the night
got deathly quiet
and his face
lost all expression
said if you're gonna
play the game boy
ya gotta learn
to play it right

'cause you got to
know when to hold 'em
know when to fold 'em
know when to
walk away
and know when to run

you never
count your money
when you're sittin'
at the table
there'll be time
enough for countin'
when the dealin's done

every gambler knows
that the secret
to survivin' is knowin'
what to throw away
and knowin'
what to keep

'cause every
hand's a winner
and every hand's
a loser
and the best that
you can hope for
is to die in your sleep

and when he'd
finished speakin'
he turned back
toward the window
crushed out
his cigarette and
faded off to sleep

and somewhere
in the darkness
the gambler
he broke even
but in his final words
i found an ace
that i could keep

'cause you got to
know when to hold 'em
know when to fold 'em
know when to
walk away
and know when to run

you never
count your money
when you're sittin'
at the table
there'll be time
enough for countin'
when the dealin's done

you got to
know when to hold 'em
know when to fold 'em
know when to
walk away
and know when to run

you never
count your money
when you're sittin'
at the table
there'll be time
enough for countin'
when the dealin's done

you got to
know when to hold 'em
know when to fold 'em
know when to
walk away
and know when to run

you never
count your money
when you're sittin'
at the table
there'll be time
enough for countin'
when the dealin's done
