[00:00:03] 2004 c'mon c'mon

[00:00:06] You gotta know when to hold 'em

[00:00:09] Know when to fold 'em

[00:00:11] Know when to walk away

[00:00:14] And know when to run

[00:00:16] You never count your money

[00:00:18] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:00:21] There'll be time enough for countin'

[00:00:24] When the dealin's done

[00:00:29] Ever far ever far ever far

[00:00:31] On a warm summer's evenin'

[00:00:33] On a train bound for nowhere

[00:00:36] I met up with the gambler

[00:00:39] We were both too tired to sleep

[00:00:41] So we took turns a starin'

[00:00:44] Out the window at the darkness

[00:00:46] Till boredom overtook us

[00:00:49] And he began to speak

[00:00:51] He said son I've made a life

[00:00:53] Out of readin peoples faces

[00:00:55] Oh yes oh yes

[00:00:57] And knowin' what their cards were

[00:00:58] By the way they held their eyes

[00:01:02] So if you don't mind my sayin'

[00:01:04] I can see you're out of aces

[00:01:07] For a taste of your whiskey

[00:01:09] I'll give you some advice

[00:01:12] So I handed him my bottle

[00:01:14] And he drank down my last swallow

[00:01:17] Then he bummed a cigarette

[00:01:19] And asked me for a light

[00:01:22] And the night got deathly quiet

[00:01:24] And his face lost all expression

[00:01:27] Said if you're gonna play the game boy

[00:01:29] Ya gotta learn to play it right

[00:01:32] You gotta know when to hold 'em

[00:01:35] Know when to fold 'em

[00:01:37] Know when to walk away

[00:01:40] And know when to run

[00:01:41] You never count your money

[00:01:44] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:01:47] There'll be time enough for countin'

[00:01:50] When the dealin's done

[00:01:54] Now every gambler knows every gambler knows

[00:01:57] That the secret to survivin'

[00:02:00] Is knowin' what to throw away

[00:02:02] And knowing what to keep

[00:02:05] 'Cause ev'ry hands a winner

[00:02:08] And ev'ry hands a loser ev'ry hands a loser

[00:02:10] And the best that you can hope for

[00:02:12] Is to die in your sleep

[00:02:17] And when he finished speakin'

[00:02:20] He turned back towards the window

[00:02:23] Crushed out his cigarette

[00:02:25] And faded off to sleep

[00:02:28] And somewhere in the darkness

[00:02:30] The gambler he broke even

[00:02:32] But in his final words I found

[00:02:35] An ace that I could keep

[00:02:37] You gotta know when to hold 'em

[00:02:40] Know when to fold 'em

[00:02:43] Know when to walk away

[00:02:45] And know when to run

[00:02:47] You never count your money

[00:02:50] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:02:52] There'll be time enough for countin'

[00:02:55] When the dealin's done

[00:02:57] You gotta know when to hold 'em

[00:02:59] When to hold 'em

[00:03:01] Know when to fold 'em when to fold 'em

[00:03:03] Know when to walk away

[00:03:06] And know when to run
