Well I'm a rovin gambler I've seen most every town    When ever I meet with a deck of cards I lay my money down   Gonna lay my money down, yea gonna lay my money down      I've gambled out in Texas and down in New Orleans    I've lost a pot with four of a kind and won with a couple of queens    Gonna Bluff with a couple of queens, yea I won with a couple of queens      Well I meet a friend in Frisco and Lady Luck was her name   Yea I couldn't lose with a pair of twos till a woman got in the game    A red head got in the game, yea a woman got in the game      Yea she won my old black panhead and she won my switch blade knife   And when I lost everything I had she told me to bet my life   She told me to bet my life, she told me to bet my life      If you don't wanna lose your freedom, you care about your life   Don't get in a game with a red head thing, you'll win yourself a wife   You'll win yourself a wife, now you got yourself a wife
