  a warm summer's eve
 On a  bound for nowhere
 I met up with  gambler
 We were both too tired to 
 So we  turns a-starin'
 Out the  at the darkness
 The boredom overtook us,  began to speak
 
 He  "Son, I've made a life
  of readin' people's faces
 Knowin'  the cards were
 By the way they  their eyes
 So if you don't mind my 
 I can  you're out of aces
 For a taste  your whiskey
  give you some advice"
 
 So I handed him  bottle
 And he drank  my last swallow
 Then he bummed  cigarette
 And asked me for  light
  the night got deathly quiet
 And  faced lost all expression
 He  "If you're gonna play the game, boy
 You  learn to play it right
 
 You've got to know when to hold 
 Know  to fold 'em
 Know when  walk away
 Know when to 
 You never  your money
 When you're sittin'  the table
 There'll be  enough for countin'
 When the dealin's 
 
 Every gambler knows
  the secret to survivin'
 Is knowin' what to  away
 And  what to keep
 'Cause  hand's a winner
 And  hand's a loser
 And the best that you can hope 
 Is to die in  sleep"
 
 And when he finished 
 He turned back toward the 
 Crushed  his cigarette
 And faded off  sleep
 And  in the darkness
  gambler he broke even
 And in his final 
 I found an ace that I could 
 
 You've got to know  to hold 'em
 Know when to  'em
 Know when to walk 
 And know when  run
 You never  your money
 When you're sittin'  the table
 There'll be time enough  countin'
  the dealin's done
 
 You've got to know when to  'em
 (When  hold 'em)
  when to fold 'em
 (When to fold 
 Know when to walk 
 And  when to run
 You never count  money
 When you're sittin' at  table
 There'll be  enough for countin'
  the dealin's done
 
 You've got to know  to hold 'em
 Know  to fold 'em
 Know  to walk away
 And know when  run
 You never count  money
 When you're sittin' at  table
 There'll be time enough for 
 When  dealin's done
