Rovin' Gambler / This Train Songtext
von The Kingston Trio

I am a rovin′ gambler
I've gambled all around
Whenever I see a deck of cards
I lay my money down (I lay my money down)
I ain′t been in this city
Any more days than three
When I fell in love with a pretty little girl
She fell in love with me (Fell in love with me)

And this train don't carry no gamblers, this train
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train
And this train don′t carry no gamblers
No crapshooters, no midnight ramblers
This train don′t carry no gamblers, this train


She took me to her parlor
Cooled me with her fan
Cried, "Daddy, daddy, oh daddy dear
I'm in love with a gamblin′ man" (Love with a gamblin' man)

And this train don′t carry no gamblers, this train
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train
And this train don′t carry no gamblers
No crapshooters, no midnight ramblers
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train

I am a rovin' gambler
I′ve gambled all around
Whenever I see a deck of cards
I lay my money down (I lay my money down)
I lay my money, I lay it down
