《The Gambler》歌词

The Gambler - Kenny Rogers
On a warm summer s evenin
On a train bound for nowhere

I met up with the gambler we were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a starin
Out the window at the darkness
Til boredom overtook us and he began to speak
He said son i ve made a life

Out of readin people s faces
And knowin what their cards were by the way they held their eyes
So if you don t mind my sayin
I can see you re out of aces
For a taste of your whiskey i ll give you some advice

So i handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow

Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light

And the night got deathly quiet and his face lost all expression
Said if you re gonna play the game
Boy you gotta learn to play it right
You got to know when to hold em

Know when to fold em

Know when to walk away and know when to run
You never count your money

When you re sittin at the table
There ll be time enough for countin

When the dealing s done

Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin

Is knowin what to throw away
And knowing what to keep

Cause every hand s a winner

And every hand s a loser
And the best that you can hope
For is to die in your sleep

And when he finished speakin

He turned back towards the window

Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep

And somewhere in the darkness the gambler
He broke even

But in his final words i found an ace that i could keep
You got to know when to hold em

Know when to fold em

Know when to walk away and know when to run
You never count your money when you re sittin at the table
There ll be time enough for countin

When the dealing s done
You got to know when to hold em
When to fold em
Know when to fold em
When to fold em
Know when to walk away and know when to run
You never count your money when you re sittin at the table
There ll be time enough for countin

When the dealing s done
You got to know when to hold em

Know when to fold em

Know when to walk away and know when to run

You never count your money when you re sittin at the table
There ll be time enough for countin

When the dealing s done
