Riverboat Gambler lyrics


(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman)

Riverboat gambler
Drinking alone on the prow
Chasing your Bourbon with Tennessee gin
The big game s about to begin

Riverboat gambler
Hiding that Ave up your sleeve
I can see through all that debonaire style
The irony bending your smile

And I won t tip your hand
I won t do you in
I want to stay near you
I want you to win

Riverboat gambler
You can defy all the odds
You can draw diamonds to fill out your flush
You can find someone to trust

And I won t steal your chips
I won t steal your pride
Won t you take me on faith
Won t you let me inside

Riverboat gambler
Under our velvet and lace
You re an old vagabond, I m a poor waif
Let s make a place that s safe

Riverboat gambler
Come on and let me inside
