paroles de chanson Gambling Bar Room Blues - John Mellencamp

I went down to the corner
Just to meet my gal
I found her standin′ on the sidewalk
She was talkin'to my pal
I strolled back to the barroom
To get another drink of gin
But the first thing I knew I was leavin′
A'rockin' the drunk again
Well I kept on drinkin′ gin and liquor
Way up into the night
When my pal walked into the barroom
Man we had a terrible fight
I reached down for my razor
And then I knocked him around
But when I pulled my pistol
I quickly smoked him down
I went down to see my baby
I met her on the way
I told her I had to leave her
I told her I could not stay
I started down to the station
I stopped in at the bar
And there I met a policeman
He was cruisin′ 'round in his car
My baby came in to join us
Then it began to rain
Man, I was in a hurry
Had to catch the midnight train
I laid my head on the barroom door
I never be drunk no more
I pawned my watch, and my gold an′ diamonds
I pawned my baby's diamond ring
I said, hey - hey - hey
Hey - hey - hey - hey - hey, oh yeah
Hey - hey - hey
Hey - hey - hey - hey - hey, oh no
