Gambler's Blues

Muddy Waters

I don't know what love is

But I think I must have it bad

Yeah, you I don't know what love is people

Whoah, but I think I must have it bad

Yeah, you know some people say love is just a gamble

But whatever it is, it's enough to drive old me mad

They say love is just a proposition people

It's strickly a game of give and take

Yeah, they tell me love, love, love is a proposition people

They say it's strickly a game of give and take

Whoah, but my woman took all I gave her

And I'm here to tell to you that love proposition stuff 's a fake



Oh, I don't claim to be no gambler people

Oh, I dont' know much about the dice

Yes, I don't claim to be no gambler people

I tell you I don't know much about the dice

Oh, but I wait and my baby knows

She knows I'm not the kind who's gonna crap out twice



Yes, she left me early this mornin'

I don't know the reason why

She just got up early this mornin'

Didn't even say good-bye



But I love you, I love you, you know I love you baby

Although you made me cry

Yes, there are a lot of women who love me

Oh, but how you satisfy
