Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
The fate of a roving gambler
Is waiting down the bloodthirsty highway
The highway is my home, Im a rambler
And I have to pay the devil every day
Now if I should owe a friend a million dollars
He knows my guarantee is sound
If we should get hijacked by robbers
Thered be no big money laying all around

[Chorus]
I may be gone to the devil
But I aint rollin over for you
If youve got a pistol in your pocket
Ive got my .38 Special too

[Verse 2]
Are you dancing for the payers of the piper?
Are you jumping through your party hoops for them?
You wont see any nine to fivers
At the tables of my poker playing friends
So take your politician or your banker
Take your friendly health insurance man
I never met a cold hearted gambler
Could carry off a hustle like they can

[Chorus]
