Kenny Rogers the Gambler Lyrics

On a warm summer’s evening
On a train bound for nowhere

We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a-starin’
Out the window at the darkness

The boredom overtook us
And he began to speak

He said, “Son, I’ve made a life

Out of readin’ people’s faces
Knowin’ what the 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
You gotta learn to play it right

You’ve 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

Every gambler knows

That the secret to survivin’
Is knowin’ what to throw away
And knowin’ what to keep

‘Cause every hand’s a winner
And every hand’s a loser
And the best that you can hope for

Is to die in your sleep”

And when he’d finished speakin’
He turned back toward the window

Crushed out his cigarette
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’ve 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’ve got to know when to hold ’em (when to hold ’em)

Know when to fold ’em (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’ve 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’

Kenny Rogers lady lyrics

Lady
I’m your knight in shining armor and I love you
You have made me what I am, and
I am yours

My love
There’s so many ways I want to say I love you
Let me hold you in my arms forever more

You have gone and made me such a fool
And I’m so lost in your love
And oh, we belong together
Won’t you believe in my song?
Lady
For so many years
I thought I’d never find you
You have come into my life and
Made me whole

Forever
Let me wake to see you each and every morning
Let me hear you whisper softly
In my ear

And in my eyes (In my eyes)
I see no one else but you (I see no one else but you)
There’s no other love like our love
And, oh, girl I’ll always want you near me
I’ve waited for you for so long

Lady
Your love’s the only love I need
Oh, and beside me is where
I want you to be (I want you to be)
‘Cause, my love
There’s somethin’ I want you to know
You’re the love of my life
You’re my lady
