The Allman Brothers Band

The Allman Brothers Band is an American rock/blues band once based in Macon, Georgia. The band was formed in Daytona Beach, Florida, in 1969 by brothers Duane Allman (slide guitar and lead guitar) and Gregg Allman (vocals, organ, songwriting), plus Dickey Betts (lead guitar, vocals, songwriting), Berry Oakley (bass guitar), Butch Trucks (drums), and Jai Johanny "Jaimoe" Johanson (drums). While the band has been called the principal architects of Southern rock, they also incorporate elements of blues, jazz, and country music, and their live shows have jam band-style improvisation and instrumental songs. more »

The dealer sits alone in the dark
Cigarette shines on his very last card
Everything he had, watched it come and go
On a gambler's roll
 
Cold wind blows a young girl's world apart
She bet it all, she bet it all on the jack of hearts
Gained her freedom but lost her soul
On a gambler's roll, on a gambler's roll
 
You know the gambler - he rides, rides on a fools' train 
Ah, tradin' silver for gold
Oh, but his luck will change; time takes it's toll
On a gambler's roll
 
The dealer knows it's just about his last game
Not even she knows all the sorrow and pain
As the forty-five deals the fatal blow
On a gambler's roll, on a gambler's roll
 
You know the gambler - he rides, rides on a fools' train
Tradin' silver for gold
Ah, but his luck will change; time takes it's toll
On a gambler's roll, on a gambler's roll
On a gambler's roll, on a gambler's roll
On a gambler's, gambler's roll
