Kenny Rogers - The Gambler (1978)

Know when to fold 'em

Know when to run

Know when to fold 'em

Boredom overtook us

When to hold 'em

Know when to walk away

Gotta know when to hold 'em And when to fold 'em

You never count your money

Is to die in your sleep"

Know when to fold 'em

So I handed him my bottle

Then he bummed a cigarette

He said, "Son, I've made a life

You never count your money

you gotta know when to fold 'em

The gambler - he broke even

For a taste of your whiskey

Know when to run

You got to know

You never count your money

And asked me for a light

And his face lost all expression

You're gonna play the game, boy

When to hold 'em

Out of readin' people's faces
