I've gambled down in Washington
And I've gambled up in Maine
I'm going down into Georgia
To knock down my last game

I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man

Well I had not been in Washington many more weeks than three
When I fell on love with a pretty little girl 
And she fell in love with me

I'm a gambling man
I'm a gambling man

I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man

I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man, man, man
I'm a gambling man

She took me in her parlour
Cooled me with her fan
She said , "Oh mother mother
I'm in love with a gambling man

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man"

She said, "Oh daughter, daughter
How could you treat me so
And leave your dear old mother
And with that gambler go"

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man

"I would not marry a farmer
He's always in the red
I'd rather marry a gambling man
With a gold watch and chain"

He's a gambling man
He's a gambling man

"And I would not marry a railroad man
Here's the reason why
I never knew a  railroad man
Who wouldn't tell his wife a lie"

He's a gambling man
He's a gambling man

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man
…..(How about Jimmy)

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man

I hear that train a-coming
Coming round the curve
Whistling and a-screaming 
Straining every nerve

He's a gambling man
He's a gambling man

He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man, man, man
He's a gambling man…………………………
