The Gambler (赌徒) - Midday Sun[00:00:00]

On a warm summer's evenin' on a train bound for nowhere[00:00:05]

I met up with the gambler we were both too tired to sleep[00:00:11]

So we took turns a starin' out the window at the darkness[00:00:16]

'Til boredom overtook us and he began to speak[00:00:22]

He said "Son I've made a life out of readin' people's faces[00:00:27]

And knowin' what their cards were by the way they held their eyes[00:00:33]

So if you don't mind my sayin' I can see you're out of aces[00:00:38]

For a taste of your whiskey I'll give you some advice"[00:00:43]

So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow[00:00:50]

Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light[00:00:56]

And the night got deathly quiet and his face lost all expression[00:01:01]

Said "If you're gonna play the game boy you gotta learn to play it right"[00:01:07]

You got to know when to hold 'em know when to fold 'em[00:01:12]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:01:18]

You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table[00:01:23]

There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done[00:01:28]

Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'[00:01:38]

Is knowin' what to throw away and knowing what to keep[00:01:44]

'Cause every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser[00:01:49]

And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep[00:01:54]

And when he finished speakin' he turned back towards the window[00:02:00]

Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep[00:02:06]

And somewhere in the darkness the gambler he broke even[00:02:11]

But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep[00:02:16]

You got to know when to hold 'em know when to fold 'em[00:02:21]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:02:28]

You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table[00:02:32]

There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done[00:02:38]

You got to know when to hold 'em know when to fold 'em[00:02:43]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:02:49]

You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table[00:02:54]

There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done[00:03:00]

You got to know when to hold 'em know when to fold 'em[00:03:05]

Know when to walk away and know when to run[00:03:11]

You never count your money when you're sittin' at the table[00:03:16]

There'll be time enough for countin' when the dealing's done[00:03:21]
