《Roving Gambler》歌词

[00:00:00] Roving Gambler - Ramblin' Jack Elliott

[00:00:01] Written by：Traditional

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:34] Gambled down in Maine

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:57] Little girl

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:53] Man

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:52] Coming around the curve

[00:02:54] Whistling and a blowing

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

[00:03:00] Ma straining every nerve

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

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

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

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

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