Gambling Man

Ah gambled down in Washington Ah gambled down in Maine Goin' down to Georgia To knock down my last game Ahm a gamiblin' Man man man, Ahm a gambling' Man, Ahm a gamblin' I had not been in Washington Many more weeks than three When I fell in love with a pretty little gal And she fell in love with me ahm a Gamblin' Man man man, Ahm a Gamblin' Man, Ahm a gambling' She took me in her parlour Cooled me with her fan, She said” Oh Mother, Mother I'm in love with a gamblin' man” Ahm a gambling' man, man etc. She said “Oh Daughter, Daughter How could you treat me so, Leave your poor old Mother And with that gambler go.” Ahm a gamblin' man, man etc. I hear that train a-comin' A-comin' round the curve A-whistlin' and a-screamin' Strainin' every nerve. Ahm a gamblin' man, man etc. I wouldn't marry a railroad man And here's the reason why I never knew a railroad man Who wouldn't tell his wife a lie. Ahm a gamblin' man, man etc. I would marry a farmer He's always in the rain I'd rather marry a gamblin' man With a big gold watch and chain. Ahm a gamblin' man, man etc. Chorus Man man man Ahm a gamblin' man man man Ahm a gamblin' man man man Ahm a gambling” man.
