Miscellaneous
Gambler′s
Guitar
Speak
of
the
hearts
that
this
vagabond
has
broken
Tell
of
the
fun
that
I've
had
Speak
of
the
loving
and
the
laughing
and
the
joking
Back
when
I
was
glad,
back
when
I
was
glad
Now
let′s
play
it
real
pretty,
my
guitar
Tell
of
the
time
when
the
riverboats
were
churning
Oh
what
a
gambler's
spree
Tell
of
the
time
when
old
lady
luck
was
burning
Every
one
but
me,
every
one
but
me
Now
let's
tell
it
again,
my
guitar
Well
tell
of
the
time
when
I
took
my
biggest
gamble
In
a
game
where
hearts
were
high
Tell
of
the
way
that
my
heart
began
to
ramble
When
she
caught
me
eye,
when
she
caught
me
eye
Now
just
once
more,
my
guitar
Go
tell
all
my
friends
this
life′s
a
game
of
poker
A
fool
and
his
gold
must
part
And
in
this
hectic
world
the
biggest
fools
the
joker
Who
gambles
with
his
heart,
who
gambles
with
his
heart
Now
let′s
tell
it
real
sad,
my
guitar
That's
the
story
of
the
gambler′s
