Woody Guthrie Gambling Man
I've gambled down in Washington And I've gambled up in Maine I'm going down into Georgia To knock down my last game I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man
Well I'd not been in Washington Many more weeks than three When I fell in love with a pretty little girl And she fell in love with me I'm a gamblin' man I'm a gamblin' man
I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man
I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man man man I'm a gamblin' man
She took me in her parlour Cooled me with her fan She said oh mother, mother I'm in love with a gamblin' man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
She said oh daughter, daughter How could you treat me so Leave your poor old mother With that gambler go He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man A gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
I would not marry a farmer He's always in the rain I'd rather marry a gamblin' man With a gold watch and chain He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
And I'd never marry a railroad man Here's the reason why I've never known a railroad man Wouldn't tell his wife a life He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
How about Jimmy
He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man
How about
I hear that train a-coming A-coming round the curve Whistling, a-screaming straining every nerve He's a gamblin' man man man He's a gamblin' man.
