On a warm
summer's 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
'Til boredom
overtook us
and he began to speak
He said Son I've
made my life
out of readin'
people's faces
And knowin' what
their cards were
by the way they
held their eyes
So if you don't
mind my sayin'
I can see you're
out of aces
For a taste of
your whiskey
I'll 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 If you're
gonna play the game
boy ya gotta learn
to play it right
You got to know
when to hold 'em
know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
and know when to run
You never count
your money
when you're sittin'
at the table
There'll be time
enough for countin'
when the dealin's done
Now ev'ry
gambler knows
that the secret
to survivin'
Is knowin' what
to throw away
and knowing what
to keep
'Cause ev'ry
hand's a winner
and ev'ry
hand's a loser
And the best that
you can hope for
is to die
in your sleep
So when he'd
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 'em
know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
and know when to run
You never count
your money
when you're sittin'
at the table
There'll be time
enough for countin'
when the dealin's done
You got to know
when to hold 'em
know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
and know when to run
You never count
your money
