Gambling Bar Room Blues

I went down to the corner

Just to meet my gal

I found her standin' on the sidewalk

She was talkin' to my pal

I strode back to the bar room

To get another drink of gin

But the first thing I knew, I was reelin'

Rockin' and drunk again

Well, I kept on drinkin' gin and liquor

Way up into the night

When my pal walked into the bar room

Then, we had a terrible fight

I reached down for my razor

And then I knocked him around

But when I pulled my pistol

I quickly smoked him down, yeah

I went down to see my baby

And met her on the way

I told her I had to leave her

I told her I could not stay

I started down to the station

And stopped in at the bar

And there, I met a policeman

He was cruisin' out in his car

My baby came in to join us

And then it began to rain

And then I was in a hurry

I had to catch the midnight train

I laid my head in the bar room door

I'll never get drunk no more

I pawn my watch and my golden chain

I pawn my baby's diamond ring

I said, hey, hey, hey

Hey-hey, hey, hey, hey (Oh yeah)

Hey, hey, hey

Hey-hey, hey, hey, hey (Let's go)
