Lyrics

Gamblin Man
By Richard Tichelman

They say loves an open door
Not anymore, no roof no walls
Never felt this way before
You took my heart off the ledge off the shelf
Before it fell apart

Chorus
I ain't no gambling man but I'll take a chance on you
They'll never understand why I do the things I do
See the swing of her hair got me lost in a stare, I cant wait any more
I ain't no gambling man but I'll take a chance on you

It doesn't matter where this goes
I just want to know, you're here, your home
Both our minds are running free
That's how it should be when your eyes meet mine.

Chorus
I ain't no gambling man but I'll take a chance on you
They'll never understand why I do the things I do
See the swing of her hair got me lost in a stare, I cant wait any more
I ain't no gambling man but I'll take a chance on you

So I'll take your hand and we'll run away in the night
So I'll take your hand and we'll run away in the night
So I'll take your hand and we'll run away in the night
Oowoo, ooowo

Chorus
I ain't no gambling man but I'll take a chance on you
They'll never understand why I do the things I do
See the swing of her hair got me lost in a stare, I cant wait any more
I ain't no gambling man but I'll take a chance on you
