Kenny Rogers - The Gambler (1978)

Know when to fold 'em

Know when to run

Know when to fold 'em

Boredom overtook us

When to hold 'em

Know when to walk away

Gotta know when to hold 'em And when to fold 'em

You never count your money

So I handed him my bottle

Is to die in your sleep"

He said, "Son, I've made a life

You never count your money

Then he bummed a cigarette

Know when to fold 'em

you gotta know when to fold 'em

For a taste of your whiskey

Know when to run

The gambler - he broke even

You're gonna play the game, boy

And his face lost all expression

And asked me for a light

Out of readin' people's faces

You never count your money

You got to know

When to hold 'em
