Lyrics:

I am a gambling man
I play the game of chance
I only place a bet
When the odds are on romance

[Chorus]
I am I am
I'm a gambling man
I try to win every game
I play for keeps
It's all I seek
I am, I am a gambling man

I've played in every bar
I always play with sin
Lose the shirt off my back
But I always win it back again

Glass of whisky in my hand
A couple of cards up my sleeve
What can I do with the Queen of Hearts
Oh honey you wouldn't believe
