Norah Jones - Roving Gambler lyrics

I am a roving gambler I gambled all around Whenever I meet with a deck of cards I lay my money down Lay my money down, lay my money down I had not been in Washington many more weeks than three I met up with a pretty little girl She fell in love with me Fell in love with me, fell in love with me She took me in her parlour, she cooled me with her fan She whispered low in her mother's ear I love that gambling man Love that gambling man, love that gambling man Oh daughter oh dear daughter how can you treat me so? Leave your dear old mother And with a gambler go With a gambler go, with a gambler go sponsored links My mother oh dear mother you can not understand If you ever see me a coming back I'll be with a gambling man With a gambling man, with a gambling man I left her here in El Paso and I wound up in Maine I met up with a gambling man Got in a poker game Got in a poker game, got in a poker game We put our money in the pot and dealt the cards around I saw him deal from the bottom of the deck And I shot that gambler down Shot the gambler down, shot the gambler down Well, now I'm in the jailhouse got a number for my name The Warden said as he locked the door You've gambled your last game Gambled your last game, gambled your last game I am a roving gambler I gambled all around Whenever I meet with a deck of cards I lay my money down Lay my money down, lay my money down
