Текст песни I Am A Roving Gambler (The Brothers Four) с переводом

I am a rovin' gambler--

I’ve gambled all around--

And wherever I see a deck of ca-a-ards,

I lay my money down,

lay my money down,

I lay my money down.

I’ve gambled down in Washington,

ga-ambled up in Maine;

I’m headed down to Tenessee-ee-ee

to knock down my last game,

knock down my last game,

to knock down my last game.

I had not been in Washington

many more weeks than three,

when I fell in love with a pretty little ga-a-al,

and she fell in love with me,

fell in love with me,

she fell in love with me.

She took me to her parlor;

she cooled me with her fan;

she whispered in her mother’s e-e-ear,

«I love that gamblin' man,

love that gamblin' man,

I love that gamblin' man.

«I wouldn’t marry a railroad man;

this is the reason why:

I’ve never seen a railroad ma-a-an

wouldn’t tell his wife a lie,

tell his wife a lie,

wouldn’t tell his wife a lie.

«Oh, Mother, oh dear Mother,

I’ll tell you if I can:

if you ever see me comin' ba-a-ack,

it’ll be with a gamblin' man,

be with a gamblin' man,

it’ll be with a gamblin' man.»

I am a rovin' gambler--

I’ve gambled all around--

and wherever I see a deck of ca-a-ards,

I lay my money down,

lay my money down,

I lay my money down.

And wherever I see a deck of ca-a-ards,

I lay my money down,

lay my money down,

lay my money down.
