Gamblin' Man Lyrics by Bonnie Raitt
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Their eyes are down and the track looks slow
It don't look like a good thing
Your horse could jump it when the pack runs wild
It don't look like a sure thing.

You must be crazy
To gamble this way
The kids are crying
And your bills ain't paid
Gamblin' man, ramblin' fool
I must be crazy to gamble on you.

The deal is done so you slip right in
You got the depth but you can't win
The cards are cold and the cut feels thin
You got the deck but you can't win.

You must be crazy
To gamble this way
The kids are hungry
And your brain ain't paid
Gamblin' man, ramblin' fool
I must be crazy to gamble on you.

Gamblin' man, you're a ramblin' fool
I must be crazy to gamble on you...
Their eyes are down and the track looks slow   It don't look like a good thing   Your horse could jump it when the pack runs wild   It don't look like a sure thing.      You must be crazy   To gamble this way   The kids are crying   And your bills ain't paid   Gamblin' man, ramblin' fool   I must be crazy to gamble on you.      The deal is done so you slip right in   You got the depth but you can't win   The cards are cold and the cut feels thin   You got the deck but you can't win.      You must be crazy   To gamble this way   The kids are hungry   And your brain ain't paid   Gamblin' man, ramblin' fool   I must be crazy to gamble on you.      Gamblin' man, you're a ramblin' fool   I must be crazy to gamble on you...
