Once Was a Gambler

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Yeah, you know I once was a gambler But I lost my money roll Yeah, you know I once was a gambler Boy, but I lost my money roll That's the reason I don't have no sweet woman Now I done lost my happy home [Verse 2] You take it down when you lose that no good money He sat around with his head hung down When you lose that old dog gone money You'll sit around with your head hung down You'll try to borrow you fifty dollars To start all over again in another town Too late, you're gonna lose, your friends don't pay you no mind [Verse 3] Baby, if you only will forgive me I won't gamble no more If you only will forgive me, baby Lord, have mercy, poor Lightnin' won't gamble no more She says, "I can't help you now Sold out to thе devil and that's no way to go" And I couldn't help but cry I cried likе this here [Verse 4] She said, "I didn't want you to gamble, Lightnin' You know who I am, I'm your wife" She said, "I didn't want you to gamble, Lightnin' You know who I am, I am your wife" She said, "Look, here, brother, just like you lost your money You had a good chance to lose your life So go 'head on, Lightnin'"
