The Gambler by Kenny Rogers

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

He said, 'Son, I've made my life
Out of readin' people's faces.
Knowin' (1)________ the (2)__________ were
By the way they held (3)__________ eyes.
So if you don't (4)________ my sayin',
I can see you're out of aces,
For a taste of your whiskey,
I'll give you (5)________ advice.'

So I handed him my bottle,
and he drank down my last swallow.
Then he (6)____________ a cigarette
And asked me for a light.
And the (7)__________ got deathly quiet,
And his face lost all expression.
He said, 'If
You're gonna play the game, boy,
You gotta (8)__________ to play it right.'

You've got to know
When to hold 'em,
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away,
Know (9)________ to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time (10)____________ for countin'
When the dealin's done.

Now (11)__________ (12)______________ knows
The (13)____________ to survivin'
Is knowin' (14)________ to (15)__________ away
And knowin' (16)________ to keep.
'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the best you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep.'

And when he finished speakin',
He (17)____________ back toward the window,
Crushed out his cigarette
And faded off to sleep.
And somewhere in the darkness,
The (18)______________ he broke even.
And in his final (19)__________ I found
An ace that I could keep.

You've got to know
When to (20)________ 'em,
Know (21)________ to fold 'em
Know when to walk away,
Know (22)________ to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time (23)____________ for countin'
When the dealin's done.

You've got to know
When to hold 'em,
Know when to (24)________ 'em
Know when to walk away,
Know (25)________ to run.
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table.
There'll be time (26)____________ for countin'
When the dealin's done.
