The Gambler (赌徒) - Studio Musicians[00:00:00]

On a warm summer's evenin'[00:00:07]

On a train bound for nowhere[00:00:09]

I met up with the gambler[00:00:12]

We were both too tired to sleep[00:00:15]

So we took turns a starin'[00:00:18]

Out the window at the darkness[00:00:20]

'Til boredom overtook us and he began to speak[00:00:23]

He said [00:00:28]

"Son I've made a life out of readin' people's faces[00:00:29]

And knowin' what their cards were[00:00:35]

By the way they held their eyes[00:00:37]

So if you don't mind my sayin'[00:00:40]

I can see you're out of aces[00:00:42]

For a taste of your whiskey[00:00:45]

I'll give you some advice"[00:00:48]

So I handed him my bottle[00:00:52]

And he drank down my last swallow[00:00:55]

Then he bummed a cigarette[00:00:58]

And asked me for a light[00:01:01]

And the night got deathly quiet[00:01:03]

And his face lost all expression[00:01:06]

Said "If you're gonna play the game boy[00:01:08]

You gotta learn to play it right"[00:01:11]

You got to know when to hold 'em [00:01:14]

Know when to fold 'em[00:01:17]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:01:20]

You never count your money[00:01:25]

When you're sittin' at the table[00:01:28]

There'll be time enough for countin'[00:01:31]

When the dealing's done[00:01:34]

Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'[00:01:41]

Is knowin' what to throw away[00:01:46]

And knowing what to keep[00:01:49]

'Cause every hand's a winner[00:01:52]

And every hand's a loser[00:01:54]

And the best that you can hope for is[00:01:57]

To die in your sleep[00:02:00]

And when he finished speakin' [00:02:02]

He turned back towards the window[00:02:06]

Crushed out his cigarette[00:02:09]

And faded off to sleep[00:02:11]

And somewhere in the darkness the gambler[00:02:14]

He broke even[00:02:16]

In his final words I found an ace that I could keep[00:02:19]

You got to know when to hold 'em [00:02:24]

Know when to fold 'em[00:02:27]

Know when to walk away[00:02:31]

And know when to run[00:02:33]

You never count your money[00:02:35]

When you're sittin' at the table[00:02:38]

There'll be time enough for countin'[00:02:41]

When the dealing's done[00:02:44]

You got to know when to hold 'em[00:02:46]

Know when to fold 'em[00:02:50]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:02:53]

You never count your money[00:02:57]

When you're sittin' at the table[00:03:00]

There'll be time enough for countin'[00:03:03]

When the dealing's done[00:03:06]

You got to know when to hold 'em [00:03:08]

Know when to fold 'em[00:03:12]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:03:15]

You never count your money[00:03:20]

When you're sittin' at the table[00:03:23]

There'll be time enough for countin'[00:03:25]

When the dealing's done[00:03:28]
