Rambling, Gambling Willie(Witmark Demo - 1962)

RAMBLING GAMBLING WILLIE - Bob Dylan[00:00:00]

Come around you roving gamblers and a story I will tell[00:00:05]

About the greatest gambler you all should know him well[00:00:09]

His name was will o conley and he gambled all his life[00:00:13]

He had twenty seven children yet he never had a wife[00:00:17]

And it's ride willie ride[00:00:21]

Roll willie roll[00:00:24]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:00:26]

He gambled in the white house and in the railroad yards[00:00:31]

Wherever there was people there was willie and his cards[00:00:35]

He had the reputation as the gamblingest man around[00:00:41]

Wives would keep their husbands home when willie came to town[00:00:45]

And it's ride willie ride[00:00:49]

Roll willie roll[00:00:51]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:00:53]

Sailing down the mississippi to a town called new orleans[00:00:58]

They're still talking about their card game on that jackson river queen[00:01:02]

I've come to win some money gambling willie says[00:01:06]

When the game finally ended up the whole damn boat was his[00:01:11]

And it's ride willie ride[00:01:15]

Roll willie roll[00:01:17]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:01:19]

Up in the rocky mountains in a town called cripple creek[00:01:24]

There was an all night poker game lasted about a week[00:01:29]

Nine hundred miners had laid their money down[00:01:33]

When willie finally left the room he owned the whole damn town[00:01:37]

And it's ride willie ride[00:01:41]

Roll willie roll[00:01:43]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:01:45]

But willie had a heart of gold and this I know is true[00:01:50]

He supported all his children and all their mothers too[00:01:54]

He wore no rings or fancy things like other gamblers wore[00:01:58]

He spread his money far and wide to help the sick and the poor[00:02:02]

And it's ride willie ride[00:02:06]

Roll willie roll[00:02:08]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:02:11]

When you played your cards with willie you never really knew[00:02:17]

Whether he was bluffing or whether he was true[00:02:21]

He won a fortune from a man who folded in his chair[00:02:25]

The man he left a diamond flush willie didn't even have a pair[00:02:29]

And it's ride willie ride[00:02:32]

Roll willie roll[00:02:35]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:02:37]

It was late one evening during a poker game[00:02:43]

A man lost all his money he said willie was to blame[00:02:46]

He shot poor willie through the head which was a tragic fate[00:02:51]

When willie's cards fell on the floor they were aces backed with eights[00:02:55]

And it's ride willie ride[00:02:58]

Roll willie roll[00:03:01]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:03:03]

So all you roving gamblers wherever you might be[00:03:09]

The moral of the story is very plain to see[00:03:13]

Make your money while you can before you have to stop[00:03:18]

For when you pull that dead man's hand your gambling days are up[00:03:22]

And it's ride willie ride[00:03:25]

Roll willie roll[00:03:28]

Wherever you are a gambling now nobody really knows[00:03:30]
