the lonely heartstring band - rambling, gambling willie كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
come all you roving gamblers and a story i will tell
about the greatest gambler and you all should know him well
his name was will o’conley and he gambled all his life
he had twenty_seven children yet he’s never had a wife

[chorus]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows

[verse 2]
he gambled in the white house and in the railroad yards
wherever there was people, there was willie and his cards
he had the reputation as the gamblingest man around
wives would keep their husbands home when willie came to town

[chorus]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
sailing down the mississippi to a town called new orleans
they’re still talking ’bout that poker game on jackson river queen
“i’ve come to win some money,” gambling willie says
by the time the game ended up, the whole d_mn boat was his
[chorus]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows

[verse 4]
oh, but willie had a heart of gold and this i know is true
he supported all his children and all their mothers too
he wore no rings or fancy things, like other gamblers wore
he spread his money far and wide to help the sick and the poor

[chorus]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows

[instrumental break]

[verse 5]
well, it was late one evening and during a poker game
a man lost all his money, he said willie was to blame
he shot poor willie through the head, which was a tragic fate
when willie’s cards fell on the floor, they were aces backed with eights

[chorus]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows
[verse 6]
so come all you roving gamblers, wherever you might be
the moral of the story is very plain to see
make your money while you can, before you have to stop
for when you pull that dead man’s hand, your gambling days are up

[chorus]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows

[outro]
and it’s ride, willie, ride
roll, willie, roll
wherever you’re a_gambling now, n0body really knows

- the lonely heartstring band
