Bob Dylan Roving Gambler Lyrics

ROVING GAMBLERas performed by Bob Dylan on the "Love Sick" singlestandard tuningGI am a rovin' gambler, I've gambled all around Wherever I meet with a deck of cards C GI lay my money down (C) G(I Lay my money down; Lay my money down.) I gambled up in Washington, gambled over in SpainI'm on my way to Frisco town to knock down my last game(knock down my last game; knock down my last game)I had not been in 'Frisco, many more days than threeI fell in love with a pretty little girlAnd she fell in love with me(Fell in love with me; Fell in love with me.)She took me in her parlor, she cooled me with a fanShe whispered low in her mama's ear"I love this gamblin' man."("Love this gamelin' man."; "Love this gamblin' man.")"Daughter, Oh! dear daughter, how could you treat me so?And leave your dear old motherAnd with a gambler go?"("With a gambler go?"; "With a gambler go?")"Mother, Oh dear mother, I'll tell you if I canIf you ever see my face again, I'll be with the gamblin' man"("be with the gamblin' man"; "be with the gamblin' man")I left her in 'Frisco, I went up to Mainethen I met with a gamblin' manand then we got into a poker game(Got into a poker game; We got into a poker game.)He put some money in the pot, passed the cards aroundI saw him deal from the bottom of the deckSo I shot the gambler down(Shot the gambler down; Shot the gambler down.)Now I'm down in prison, I got a number for a nameThe warden said as he closed the doorYou've gambled your last game(Gambled your last game; Gambled your last game.)
