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
