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

Then he bummed a cigarette

You never count your money

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

Is to die in your sleep"

So I handed him my bottle

Know when to fold 'em

For a taste of your whiskey

The gambler - he broke even

Know when to run

you gotta know when to fold 'em

And asked me for a light

You got to know

You never count your money

When to hold 'em

Out of readin' people's faces

And his face lost all expression

You're gonna play the game, boy
