Lay My Money Down

David Allen Coe

I am a rollin Gambler

A Gambler all around

Whenever I see a game of chance

I lay my money down boys

Lay my money down boys

Lay my money down



I gambled down in Shreveport

Gambled down in Spain

I won my first wife shootin dice

But I lost her in a poker game



I am a rollin Gambler

A Gambler all around

Whenever I see a game of chance

I lay my money down boys

Lay my money down boys

Lay my money down



I had to pawn my gold watch

Pawned my diamond ring

Sold my sould to the devil

In a game in New Orleans



I am a rollin Gambler

A Gambler all around

Whenever I see a game of cards

I lay my money down boys

Lay my money down boys

Lay my money down



I am a rollin Gambler

A Gambler all around

Whenever I see a game of chance

I lay my money down boys

Lay my money down boys

Lay my money down



I gambled down in Shreveport

Gambled down in Spain

I won my first wife shootin dice

But I lost her in a poker game



I am a rollin Gambler

A Gambler all around

Whenever I see a game of chance

I lay my money down boys

Lay my money down boys

Lay my money down



I'm footloose and fancy free and I lay my money down
