Текст (слова) песни: Kenny Rogers - The Gambler



On a warm summers evening,
on a train bound for nowhere
I met up with a gambler,
we were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns at staring
out the window at the darkness
The boredom overtook us and he began to speak
He said, son I`ve made a life out of reading people`s faces
And knowing what the 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
Chorus:
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 dealin`s done
Every gambler knows that the secret to survive is
Knowing what to throw away and knowing what to keep
`Cos every hand`s a winner and every hand`s a loser
And the best that you can hope for is that I end asleep
And when he finished speakin`,
he turned back for the window
Crushed out the cigarette,
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
chorus repeats 3x
