On a warm summer evenin on a train bound for nowhere

I met up with the gambler we were both too tired to sleep

So we took turns a starin out the window at the darkness

boredom overtook us and he began to speak

He said I made a life out of readin people faces

And knowin what their cards were by the way they held their eyes

So if you don mind my sayin I can see you out of aces

For a taste of your whiskey I give you some advice

So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow

Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light

And the night got deathly quiet and his face lost all expression

Said you gonna play the game boy ya gotta learn to play it right

You got to know when to hold know when to fold

Know when to walk away and know when to run

You never count your money when you sittin at the table

There be time enough for countin when the dealin done

Ev gambler knows that the secret to survivin

Is knowin what to throw away and knowing what to keep

ev hand a winner and ev hand a loser

And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep

And when he finished speakin he turned back towards the window

Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep

And somewhere in the darkness the gambler he broke even

But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep

You got to know when to hold know when to fold

Know when to walk away and know when to run

You never count your money when you sittin at the table

There be time enough for countin when the dealin done

You got to know when to hold know when to fold

Know when to walk away and know when to run

You never count your money when you sittin at the table

There be time enough for countin when the dealin done

You got to know when to hold know when to fold

Know when to walk away and know when to run

You never count your money when you sittin at the table

There be time enough for countin when the dealin done
