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

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

Know when to walk away

You never count your money

You never count your money

Know when to fold 'em

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

Then he bummed a cigarette

Is to die in your sleep"

So I handed him my bottle

The gambler - he broke even

For a taste of your whiskey

Know when to run

you gotta know when to fold 'em

And asked me for a light

You're gonna play the game, boy

Out of readin' people's faces

You got to know

When to hold 'em

And his face lost all expression

You never count your money
