Roving Gambler - Ramblin' Jack Elliot
I'm a roving gambler

And I gamble down in town

Whenever I meet with a deck of cards
I lay my money down

Boys I lay my money down

I've gambled up in Washington

Gambled down in Maine
I'm on my way to Georgia
To knock down my last game
Boys knock down my last game

Well I had 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

And she fell in love with me

She took me in her parlor
She cooled me with her fan
She whispered low in her mama's ear
I love this gamblin man

Ma I love this gamblin man

Well daughter my dear daughter
How can you treat me so
To leave your poor old mama
And with this gambler go

And with this gambler go

Well mama my dear mama
You know I love you well
But the love I hold for a gamblin
Man
No human tongue can tell

Ma no human tongue can tell

I'd never marry a farmer
He's always in the rain
I'd rather marry a gamblin' man
With a big gold watch and chain

Ma, big gold watch and chain

And I'd never marry a railroad man
The reason I'll tell you why
Never did see a railroad man
Who wouldn't tell his wife a lie
Ma wouldn't tell his wife a lie

I hear the train a-comin
Comin around the curve
Whistling and a-blowin
And a-strainin every nerve

Ma strainin every nerve

It's good-bye, good-bye mama
Tell you if I can
If you ever see me comin home again
It will be with a gamblin man
Ma be with a gamblin' man
