Roving Gambler (流浪赌徒) - Ramblin' Jack Elliott[00:00:00]

Written by：Traditional[00:00:05]

I'm a roving gambler[00:00:10]

And I gamble down in town[00:00:14]

Whenever I meet with a deck of cards[00:00:18]

I lay my money down[00:00:20]

Boys I lay my money down[00:00:23]

I've gambled up in Washington[00:00:30]

Gambled down in Maine[00:00:34]

I'm on my way to Georgia[00:00:36]

To knock down my last game[00:00:38]

Boys knock down my last game[00:00:42]

Well I had not been in Washington[00:00:49]

Many more weeks than three[00:00:53]

When I fell in love with a pretty[00:00:55]

Little girl[00:00:57]

And she fell in love with me[00:00:58]

And she fell in love with me[00:01:01]

She took me in her parlor[00:01:07]

She cooled me with her fan[00:01:09]

She whispered low in her mama's ear[00:01:11]

I love this gambling man[00:01:13]

Ma I love this gambling man[00:01:18]

Well daughter my dear daughter[00:01:31]

How can you treat me so[00:01:33]

To leave your poor old mama[00:01:35]

And with this gambler go[00:01:37]

And with this gambler go[00:01:41]

Well mama my dear mama[00:01:47]

You know I love you well[00:01:49]

But the love I hold for a gambling[00:01:51]

Man[00:01:53]

No human tongue can tell[00:01:53]

Ma no human tongue can tell[00:01:56]

I'd never marry a farmer[00:02:14]

He's always in the rain[00:02:16]

I'd rather marry a gambling man[00:02:18]

With a big gold watch and chain[00:02:20]

Ma big gold watch and chain[00:02:23]

And I'd never marry a railroad man[00:02:31]

The reason I'll tell you why[00:02:33]

Never did see a railroad man[00:02:35]

Who wouldn't tell his wife a lie[00:02:37]

Ma wouldn't tell his wife a lie[00:02:40]

I hear the train a coming[00:02:48]

Coming around the curve[00:02:52]

Whistling and a blowing[00:02:54]

And a straining every nerve[00:02:56]

Ma straining every nerve[00:03:00]

It's goodbye goodbye mama[00:03:05]

Tell you if I can[00:03:08]

If you ever see me coming home again[00:03:09]

It will be with a gambling man[00:03:11]

Ma be with a gambling man[00:03:15]
