Lyrics:

I am a roving gambler. I've gambled all around
Whenever I see a deck of cards, I lay my money down. I lay my money down

I hadn't been in the city many more days than three
When I fell in love with a pretty little girl and she fell in love with me. She fell in love with me

This train don't carry no gamblers, this train. [Repeat]
This train don't carry no gamblers, no crap shooters, no midnight ramblers
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train

She took me to her parlor. She cooled me with her fan
Cried, 'Daddy, Daddy, oh, Daddy, dear, I'm in love with a gambling man. I'm in love with a gambling man

This train don't carry no gamblers, this train. [Repeat]
This train don't carry no gamblers, no crap shooters, no midnight ramblers
This train don't carry no gamblers, this train

I am a roving gambler. I've gambled all around
Whenever I see a deck of cards, I lay my money down. I lay my money down
I lay my money, yeah, I lay it down
