Kentucky Gambler - Kentucky Gambler[00:00:00]
He wanted more from like[00:00:10]
Than four kids and a wife[00:00:12]
And a job in the dark Kentucky mines[00:00:15]
A twenty-acre farm[00:00:19]
With a shacky house and barn[00:00:22]
That's all he had[00:00:24]
And all he left behind[00:00:25]
At gambling he was lucky[00:00:29]
So he left Kentucky[00:00:31]
Left behind his woman and his kids[00:00:34]
Into the gay casino[00:00:38]
In Nevada's town of Reno[00:00:40]
Kentucky gambler planned to get rich quick[00:00:43]
Kentucky gambler who's gonna love your woman in Kentucky[00:00:47]
Who's gonna be the one to give her what she needs[00:00:52]
Kentucky gambler who's gonna raise your children in Kentucky[00:00:58]
Who's gonna keep them fed and keep shoes on their feet[00:01:03]
At the gamblers' paradise[00:01:11]
Lady luck was on his side[00:01:13]
Kentucky gambler played his cards just right[00:01:15]
He won at everything he played[00:01:20]
Kentucky gambler had it made[00:01:22]
And he should have quit and gone on home that night[00:01:24]
But when you love the greenback dollar[00:01:29]
Sorrow's always bound to follow[00:01:32]
Reno dreams fade into neon amber[00:01:34]
And lady luck she'll lead you on[00:01:38]
She'll stay awhile and then she's gone[00:01:41]
You'd better go on home Kentucky gambler[00:01:43]
But a gambler never seems to stop[00:01:48]
Til he loses all he's got[00:01:50]
And so Kentucky gambler he played on[00:01:53]
He played til he lost all he won[00:01:57]
He was right back where he started from[00:01:59]
Then he started wanting to go home[00:02:02]
Kentucky gambler there ain't nobody waiting in Kentucky[00:02:06]
When you walked out somebody else walked in[00:02:11]
Kentucky gambler looks like you ain't really very lucky[00:02:16]
Seems to me a gambler looses much more than he wins[00:02:21]
So you think about it[00:02:26]
Kentucky gambler[00:02:28]
