Roving Gambler

Well, I am a roving gambler I've gambled all around Whenever I need my deck of cards I lay my money down I lay my money down I lay my money down I had not been in Washington many more days than three When I fell in love with a pretty little girl And she fell in love with me She fell in love with me fell in love with me She took me in her parlor cooled me with her fan Whispered low in Mama's ear I love this gambling man I love this gambling man love this gambling man Daughter oh dear daughter what makes you treat me so To leave your dear old Mama and with that gambler go Mother, oh dear Mother you know I love you well But the love I have for the gambling man No human tongue can tell
