Roving Gambler

I am a roving gambler I gambled all around

Wherever I meet with a deck of cards I lay my money down

Lay my money down boys I lay my money down

Yes I do ooh mercy

I've gambled in Frisco I've gambled in Maine

I'm on my way to Atlanta GA I'm gonna knock down my last game

Knock down my last game boys I'm gonna knock down my last game

Yes I am hmmm

(Mama dear mama you know I love you well)

But the love she has for this gamblin' man ain't no human tongue can tell

Human tongue can tell Lord no human tongue can tell hmmm

(Mama dear mama I’d tell you if I can)

The next time you see your little darling she gonna be with this gamblin' man

Be with this gamblin' man woman she gonna be with this gamblin' man hmmm
