Kenny Rogers - The Gambler (1978)

Know when to fold 'em

Know when to run

Know when to fold 'em

Boredom overtook us

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

Know when to walk away

When to hold 'em

You never count your money

So I handed him my bottle

Know when to fold 'em

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

Is to die in your sleep"

Then he bummed a cigarette

You never count your money

Know when to run

you gotta know when to fold 'em

For a taste of your whiskey

The gambler - he broke even

And asked me for a light

Out of readin' people's faces

You're gonna play the game, boy

And his face lost all expression

You never count your money

When to hold 'em

You got to know
