Lay my money down,
lay my money
down
I am a roving gambler gambled all around
Whenever I meet with a deck of cards I lay my money down
Lay my money down, lay my money down
I had not been in Frisco many more weeks than three
Til I fell in love with a pretty little gal She fell in love with me
Fell in love with me, fell in love with me
She took me in her parlor, she cooled me with her fan
She whispered low in her mother's ear I love the gambling man
Love the gambling man, love the gambling man
Oh daughter oh dear daughter how can you treat me so
Leave your dear old mother And with a gambler go
With a gambler go, with a gambler go
My mother oh dear mother you know I love you well
But the love I have for that gamblin’ man no human tongue can tell
No human tongue can tell, Lord, no human tongue can tell
We started out from Frisco, and I wound up in Maine
There I met up with a gambling man and I got in a poker game
Got in a poker game, got in a poker game
We put our money in the pot and they dealt the cards around
I saw him deal from the bottom of the deck so I shot that gambler down
Shot the gambler down, shot the gambler down
Now I’m down in prison got a number for my name
The Warden said as he locked the door You've gambled your last game
Gambled your last game, gambled your last game
I’ve gambled out in Washington I gambled over in Spain
Goin back to Georgia to gamble my last game
Gamble my last game, gamble my last game
