Gambler's Roll - The Allman Brothers Band

The dealer sits alone in the dark

Cigarette shines on his very last card

Everything he had… watched it come and go On a gambler’s roll

Cold wind blows a young girl’s world apart

She bet it all she bet it all on the jack of hearts

Gained her freedom but lost her soul

On a gambler’s roll On a gambler’s roll

You know the gambler he rides… rides on a fools train

Ah tradin' silver for gold

Oh but his luck will change… time takes it’s toll

On a gambler’s roll

The dealer knows… it’s just about his last game

Not even she knows all the sorrow and pain

As the forty-five deals the fatal blow

On a gamblers roll… on a gamblers roll

You know the gambler he rides… rides on a fools train

Tradin' silver for gold

Ah but his luck will change… time takes it’s toll

On a gambler’s roll… on a gambler’s roll

On a gambler’s roll… on a gamblers roll

On a gamblers… gambler’s roll
