Gamblin' man And I'm sitting here trying my heart out Gamblin' man And I'm sitting here trying my heart out Standing on the ground of bitterness I have a stone and I lay Talking, talking about intelligence I think I'm high on my day You see, Friday, I took a walk through the neighborhood 'Cause I got to thinking that some fresh air might do me good Oh, but I know that someone, someone dances above me Yeah, yeah, keeps me holding on, holding on, holding on 'Cause I'm a gamblin' man And I'm sitting here trying my heart out Yeah, yeah, yeah Well, I'm a gamblin' man and I do what I can Gamblin' man, just sitting here trying my heart out Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a gamblin' man and I do what I can I was having a talk with my sister Tired, shortly after the party I said, "Is this a friend of yours, is a friend of mine? Or might be if you'd only help me get started" She told me, "See, you're a man with no regard If I had it my way, I'd have you tied up in the yard With Fifi and Cleopatra, your obsession with those dirty jeans" Yeah, yeah, but they keep me holding on, holding on, holding on 'Cause I'm a gamblin' man And I'm sitting here trying my heart out Yeah, yeah, yeah Well, I'm a gamblin' man and I do what I can Gamblin' man, just sitting here trying my heart out Instead of taking care of business I'm a gamblin' man and I do what I can, baby See, I don't need a witness 'cause I'm not denying Instead of taking care of business, my mind is out there flying I'm living for the good times, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm just holding on, holding on, holding on Gamblin' man And I'm sitting here trying my heart out Gamblin' man, just sitting here trying my heart out See, I'm out on the people Oh, yeah, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah Gamblin' man And I'm sitting here trying my heart out Oh, good God, yeah Gamblin' man, just sitting here trying my heart out Yeah, yeah Well, I'm a gamblin' man and I do what I can, baby Oh, good God, still trying Just holding on, holding on, holding on, yeah Someone dances above me
