Carly Simon "Riverboat Gambler" |
Riverboat gambler Drinking alone on the prow Chasing your Bourbon with Tennessee gin The big game's about to begin Riverboat gambler Hiding that ace up your sleeve I can see through all that debonaire style The irony bending your smile And I won't tip your hand I won't do you in I want to stay near you I want you to win Want you to win Riverboat gambler You can defy all the odds You can draw diamonds to fill out your flush You can find someone to trust And I won't steal your chips Well, I won't steal your pride Won't you take me on faith Won't you let me inside Let me inside Riverboat gambler Under all velvet and lace You're an old vagabond, I'm a poor waif Let's make a place that's safe Riverboat gambler Come on and let me inside Let me inside Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
