Gambling Polka Dot Blues Lyrics & Tabs by Hank Snow
Gambling Polka Dot Blues
guitar chords lyrics
I thought i was a gambler
broke ev'ry shark in town
until i met a rounder
who called all i put down
we laid the cards on the table
he drew an ace high hand
he bet his watch and i called it
and lost my money like a man
()
i've got them polka dot blues, oh, them polka dot blues
lost my hat and my coat and my straight-laced shoes
sold my watch and went back to lose
the mean old gambling polka dot blues
Now my gal had plenty, so i got twenty
then went back and sat down
the mean old gambling polka dot blues
Now my gal had plenty, so i got twenty
then went back and sat down
i got a four but thought it was more
as we dealt the cards around
i sat the deck on the table
bet him all i could stand
i turned it over a measly four
he had another ace high hand
(repeat )
