The Gambler by Kenny Rogers

On a warm summer's evenin',
On a (1)__________ bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler.
We were both too tired to sleep.
So we took (2)__________ a-starin'
Out the window at the darkness.
When boredom (3)________________ us,
He began to speak.

He said, 'Son, I've (4)________ my life
Out of readin' people's faces.
Knowin' what the (5)__________ were
By the way (6)________ held (7)__________ eyes.
So if you don't (8)________ my sayin',
I can see you're out of aces,
For a taste of your whiskey,
I'll (9)________ you (10)________ advice.'

So I (11)____________ him my bottle,
and he drank down my (12)________ swallow.
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light.
And the night got deathly quiet,
And his face lost all expression.
He said, 'If
You're gonna (13)________ the game, boy,
You gotta learn to play it right.'

You've got to know
When to hold 'em,
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away,
Know when to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be (14)________ enough for countin'
When the dealin's done.

Now every gambler knows
The secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' (15)________ to keep.
'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the (16)________ you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep.'

And when he finished speakin',
He turned back toward the window,
Crushed out his cigarette
And (17)__________ off to sleep.
And somewhere in the darkness,
The gambler he (18)__________ even.
And in his final (19)__________ I found
An ace (20)________ I (21)__________ keep.

You've got to know
When to (22)________ 'em,
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away,
Know (23)________ to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time (24)____________ for countin'
When the dealin's done.

You've got to know
When to (25)________ 'em,
Know when to (26)________ 'em
Know when to (27)________ away,
Know when to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done.
