《The Roving Gambler》歌词

[00:00:00] The Roving Gambler - John Jacob Niles

[00:00:00] I am a roving gambler

[00:00:05] I've been in many a town

[00:00:09] Where-e'er I see a pack of cards

[00:00:15] I lay my money down

[00:00:19] I lay my money down

[00:00:24] I hadn't been a packet man

[00:00:28] Many more weeks that three

[00:00:34] When I fell in love with the St. Louis girl

[00:00:38] And she in love with me

[00:00:42] And she in love with me

[00:00:47] We went in the ba-back parlor

[00:00:52] She cooled me with her fan

[00:00:57] She whispered soft in her mother's ear

[00:01:02] I love my gamblin' man

[00:01:06] I love my gamblin' man

[00:01:11] Oh daughter dear dear daughter

[00:01:16] How could you do me so

[00:01:21] To leave your dear old mother-er

[00:01:26] And with this gambler go

[00:01:30] And with this gambler go

[00:01:36] 'Tis true I love you dearly

[00:01:39] 'Tis true I love you well

[00:01:44] But the love I have for the gamblin' man

[00:01:49] No human tongue can tell

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

[00:01:57] She picked up her satchel

[00:02:01] And she did leave her home

[00:02:07] And on the steamer morning star

[00:02:12] The two of them did roam

[00:02:16] The two of them did roam
