《The Gambler》歌词

[00:00:00] The gambler - Alan Ladd

[00:00:05] On a warm summer's evenin'

[00:00:08] On a train bound for nowhere

[00:00:10] I met up with the gambler

[00:00:13] We were both too tired to sleep

[00:00:16] So we took turns a starin'

[00:00:18] Out the window at the darkness

[00:00:21] 'Til boredom overtook us

[00:00:24] And he began to speak

[00:00:26] He said "Son I've made a life

[00:00:29] Out of readin' people's faces

[00:00:32] And knowin' what their cards

[00:00:34] Were by the way they held their eyes

[00:00:37] So if you don't mind my sayin'

[00:00:40] I can see you're out of aces

[00:00:43] For a taste of your whiskey

[00:00:45] I'll give you some advice"

[00:00:50] So I handed him my bottle and

[00:00:52] He drank down my last swallow

[00:00:56] Then he bummed a cigarette

[00:00:58] And asked me for a light

[00:01:00] And the night got deathly quiet

[00:01:03] And his face lost all expression

[00:01:06] Said "If you're gonna play the game

[00:01:08] Boy you gotta learn to play it right"

[00:01:11] You got to know when to hold 'em

[00:01:14] Know when to fold 'em

[00:01:17] Know when to walk away

[00:01:20] And know when to run

[00:01:22] You never count your money

[00:01:24] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:01:27] There'll be time enough for

[00:01:29] Countin' when the dealing's done

[00:01:37] Every gambler knows

[00:01:40] That the secret to survivin'

[00:01:42] Is knowin' what to throw

[00:01:44] Away and knowing what to keep

[00:01:47] 'Cause every hand's a winner

[00:01:50] And every hand's a loser

[00:01:53] And the best that you can

[00:01:54] Hope for is to die in your sleep

[00:01:58] And when he finished speakin'

[00:02:01] He turned back towards the window

[00:02:04] Crushed out his cigarette

[00:02:07] And faded off to sleep

[00:02:09] And somewhere in the

[00:02:11] Darkness the gambler

[00:02:13] He broke even

[00:02:15] But in his final words

[00:02:16] I found an ace that I could keep

[00:02:19] You got to know when to hold 'em

[00:02:23] Know when to fold 'em

[00:02:26] Know when to walk away

[00:02:28] And know when to run

[00:02:30] You never count your money

[00:02:33] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:02:36] There'll be time enough for

[00:02:37] Countin' when the dealing's done

[00:02:41] You got to know when to hold 'em

[00:02:45] Know when to fold 'em

[00:02:47] Know when to walk away

[00:02:50] And know when to run

[00:02:52] You never count your money

[00:02:55] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:02:57] There'll be time enough for

[00:02:59] Countin' when the dealing's done

[00:03:03] You got to know when to hold 'em

[00:03:06] Know when to fold 'em

[00:03:09] Know when to walk away

[00:03:11] And know when to run

[00:03:13] You never count your money

[00:03:16] When you're sittin' at the table

[00:03:19] There'll be time enough for

[00:03:21] Countin' when the dealing's done
