Tekst piosenki ' The Gambler ' wykonawcy Let's Quit

I'm a poor man, only got a little money,
'cause most of what I earn goes strait to my honey.
Now I'm fed up with that, and need to get away,
so I go to the gambling hall,
to try my luck today

(He wants to double his fortune)
I know it is my day
(He wants to double his fortune)
Then I can get away
(He wants to double his fortune)
Then I'll be so rich,
but first I need to change some more
'cause this is a bitch.

I'm richer than I was, when I walked in that door,
I know it's best to stop, but I could use some more.
It's going a little worse, but I am just beginning,
I'm loosing a little now, but overall I'm winning.

(He wants to double his fortune)
I know it is my day
(He wants to double his fortune)
Then I can get away
(He wants to double his fortune)
Then I'll be so rich,
but first I need to change some more
'cause this is a bitch.

Now I lost all I had won, don't think it's funny,
what will I tell my love, what will I tell my honey?
I can tell her I will stop, an that it makes me sad,
but she won't believe me, jee do I feel bad.

(He wants to double his fortune)
I thought it was my day.
(He wants to double his fortune)
I guess I'll have to stay.
(He wants to double his fortune)
It could have been so nice,
now my love has run away,
I guess this is my price.

(He wants to double his fortune)
My love has run away. (He wants to double his fortune)
What have I got to say? (He wants to double his fortune)
I'll have to wait for pay-day. (He wants to double his fortune)
Is only 30 days away.
