Son of a rotten gambler lyrics
by Anne Murray



And his love will be his vision
And he'll take you where you stand
And will you stand your life by his
And help the boy become a man

Oh, he'd by the son of his father
His father, the teacher
Teaching love and honesty
And being his own man handler

For the son of the son
Of a run of the mill run
Rotten gambler

Will the devil
Be getting to you as you
Look back over what you've done

And what you've done
Was it for reason or rhyme
Was it just for fun

Will he be the son of his father
His father, the teacher
Teaching love and honesty
And being his own man handler

For the son of the son
Of a run of the mill run
Rotten gambler

Back on the road now
You can lose your head
There ain't no kingdom
For the gambling man

You know the road now
And you've made your stand
When his eyes shine upon you
Shine upon you

He'd by the son of his father
His father, the teacher
Teaching love and honesty
And being his own man handler

For the son of the son
Of a run of the mill run
Rotten gambler
