The Gambler Lyrics

The Gambler

"Good morning Mister Railroad man.

What time do your trains toll by?"

"At nine-sixteen and two-forty-four

And twenty five minutes till five."

"It's nine-sixteen and two-forty-four,

Twenty-five minutes till five,

Thank you Mr. Railroad man,

I want to watch your trains roll by."

Standing on a platform,

Smoking a cheap cigar

Waiting for an old freight-train

That carries an empty car.

Well, l pulled my hat down over my eyes,

And l walked across the track,

And I caught me the end of an old freight-train,Guthrie Woody - The Gambler - http://motolyrics.com/guthrie-woody/the-gambler-lyrics.html

And I never did come back.

I sat down in a gamblin' game,

And I could not play my hand,

Just thinkin' about that woman I love

Run away with another man.

Run away with another man, poor boy

Run away with another man,

I was thinking about that woman that l love,

Run away with another man.

Note: a sort of montage of pieces of Poor By and Danville Girl RG

Recorded by Cisco Houston. Also, I think, Woody Guthrie
