Roving Gambler

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
 I met up 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, cooled me with her fan
 Whispered low in her mother's ear
 I love this gambling man
 Love this gambling man, love this 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 my mother you can not understand
 If you ever see me a coming back
 I'll be with a gambling man
 With a gambling man, with a gambling man
 I left her there in Frisco and I wound up in Maine
 I met up with a gambling man
 Got in a poker game
 Got in a poker game, got in a poker game
 We put our money in the pot and dealt the cards around
 I saw him deal from the bottom of the deck
 And I shot that gambler down
 Shot the gambler down, shot the gambler down
 Well, now I'm in the jailhouse got a number for my name
 The Warden said as he locked the door
 You've gambled your last game
 Gambled your last game, gamble your last game
