Dave Dudley Gamblin` Man Lyrics

Gamblin` Man Lyrics

I've gambled down in Georgia when I was just a lad

I've gambled from the Yukon to the shores of Trinidad

I'd bet my green on anything and win 'em if I can

I've had my run of luck boy I'm a gamblin' man

I've gambled on the jumping frogs in Bear Creek Arkansas

I've bet pennies at the accident up in Omaha

It's pennies at the sidewalk in a town of Baltimore

See plenty of big auction boy but I'm a still wantin' more

I've gambled outta cut roads been jailed in Abilene

I've bet on cajun rooster fights down in New Orleans

I played the game road poker as I wheeled my big sedan

I'd bet my green on anything I'm a gamblin' man

[ guitar ]

I've gambled in Las Vegas broke the bank at Keno's Club

I made a fortune on the road playin' five cards stud

I don't brag but I'm a sharpest they call me Gold Dust Dan

I've made a bundle on gamblin' I'm a gamblin' man

Well I've bet my love on a dancin' girl that I caught her runnin' round

I guess she's just too much like me she'll never settle down

Now I'm broke and busted just playin' a losin' hand

But I'm gonna make a comeback someday I'm a gamblin' man

Yeah I'm gonna make a comeback someday I'm a gamblin' man
