Son Of A Rotten Gambler Lyrics

And his love will be his vision  

 And he'll take you where you stand  

 And will you stand your life by his  

 And help the boy become a man  

  

 And he'd be the son of his father his father the teacher  

 Teaching love and honesty being his own man handler  

 For the son of  the son of run of the mill run  

 Rotten gambler  

  

 Will the devil be getting to you as you look back  

 Over what you've done  

 And what you've done was it for reason or rhyme  

 Was it just for fun  

  

 And he'd be the son of his father his father the teacher  

 Teachin' love and honesty being his own man handler  

 For the son of  the son of run of the mill run  

 Rotten gambler  

  

 Back on the road now you can lose your head  

 There ain't no kingdom for the gambling man  

 You know the road now and you've made your stand  

 When his eyes shine upon you shine upon you  

  

 And he'd be the son of his father his father the teacher  

 Teaching love and honesty being his own man handler  

 For the son of  the son of run of the mill run  

 Rotten gambler  

  

 Back on the road now you can lose your head  

 There ain't no kingdom for the gambling man  

 You know the road now and you've made your stand  

 When his eyes shine upon you shine upon you  

  

 And he'd be the son of his father his father the teacher  

 Teaching love and honesty being his own man handler  

 or the son of  the son of run of the mill run  

 Rotten gambler
