[Verse 1]
[G]I am a roving gambler
I've gamble all around
And wherever I see a [C]deck of cards
I'll lay my money [G]down

[Verse 2]
[G]
I've gambled down in Washington
Gambled up in Maine
I'm headin' down to [C]Tennessee
To knock down my last [G]game
To knock down my last game
To [D]knock down my last [G]game.

[Verse 3]
I [G]had not been in Washington
Many more weeks than three
When I fell in love with a
[C]pretty little gal
And she fell in love with [G]me
Fell in love with me.
She [D]fell in love with [G]me.

[Verse 4]
[G]
She took me to her parlor
She cooled me with her fan
She whispered in her [C]mother's ear
''I love that gambling [G]man,
Love that gambling man
I [D]love that [G]gambling man.''

[Verse 5]
"I wouldn't marry a railroad man
This is the reason why
I never seen a [C]railroad man
Wouldn't tell his wife a [G]lie
Tell his wife a lie.
Wouldn't [D]tell his wife [G]a
lie.''

[Verse 6]
''Oh mother, oh dear [G]mother
I'll tell you if I can
If you ever see me [C]coming back
It'll be with a [G]gamblin' man
Be with a gamblin' man.
It'll [D]be with [G]a gamblin' man.''

[Verse 7]
[G]I am a roving gambler
I've gamble all around
And wherever I see a [C]deck of cards
I'll lay my money [G]down
Lay my money down.
I'll [D]lay my money [G]down.

[Verse 8]
And when I see a [C]deck of cards
I'll lay my money [G]down
I'll lay my money down.
[D]Lay my money down...
