[00:00.42] The Gambler

[00:02.28] Hmm, oh, hmm, hmm, oh, yeah... hothead!

[00:11.58] On a warm summer's evenin'

[00:14.76] On a train bound for nowhere

[00:17.68] I met up with the gambler

[00:20.87] We were both too tired to sleep

[00:23.26] So we took turns to starin' out the window at the darkness

[00:28.58] 'Til boredom overtook us and he began to speak

[00:34.43] He said son I've made a life, out of readin' people's faces

[00:40.01] And knowing what their cards were by the way they held their eyes

[00:45.33] So if you don't mind me saying, I can see you're out of aces

[00:51.17] For the taste of your whisky, I'll give you some advice

[00:57.28] So I handed him my bottle, and he drank down my last swallow

[01:03.65] And he bummed a cigarette, and asked me for a light

[01:08.70] And the night dark gettin' quiet, and his face lost all expression

[01:14.28] Said if you gonna play the game boy, you gotta learn to play it right

[01:19.59] You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em

[01:25.17] Know when to walk away, know when to run

[01:30.48] You never count your money while sittin' at the table

[01:36.06] There will be time enough for counting when the deal is done

[01:46.42] Every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'

[01:51.20] Is knowing what to throw in and knowing what to keep

[01:56.77] 'Cause every hand's a winner, and every hands a looser

[02:02.36] And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep

[02:07.93] And when he finished speaking

[02:10.86] He turned back towards the window

[02:13.52] Crushed down his cigarette, faded off to sleep

[02:18.56] And somewhere in the darkness, the Gambler, he broke even

[02:24.93] But in his final words I found a message I could keep

[02:29.45] You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em

[02:35.56] Know when to walk away, know when to run

[02:40.61] You never count your money while sittin' at the table

[02:46.18] There will be time enough for counting when the deal is done

[02:51.49] You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em

[02:57.87] Know when to walk away, know when to run

[03:02.39] You never count your money while sittin' at the table

[03:08.23] There will be time enough for counting when the deal is done

[03:13.55] You got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em

[03:19.65] Know when to walk away, know when to run

[03:24.43] You never count your money while sittin' at the table

[03:30.27] There will be time enough for counting when the deal is done
