Gambler’s Blues Songtext
von B.B. King

I don′t know what love is
But I think I must have it bad
You know I don't know what love is, people
But I think I must have it bad

You know some people say love is just a gamble
But whatever it is, it′s enough to drive old me mad
They say love is just a proposition, people
It's strictly a game of give and take
They say love is just a proposition, people
It's strictly a game of give and take
But my woman took all I gave her
And I′m here to tell you that love proposition′s just a fake


I don't claim to be no gambler, people
I don′t know much about the dice
I don't claim to be no gambler, people
I don′t know much about the dice
But I'll wager my baby knows
She knows I′m not the kind that's gonna crap out twice

She left me early this morning
I don't know the reason why
She just got up early this morning
And didn′t even say goodbye
But I love you, I love you, you know I love you, baby
Although you made me cry

Yes, there′s a lot of women who want me
But how are you satisfied?
