Riverboat Gambler Lyrics - Carly Simon

Riverboat gambler 

Drinking alone on the prow 

Chasing your Bourbon with Tennessee gin 

The big game's about to begin 

Riverboat gambler 

Hiding that Ave up your sleeve 

I can see through all that debonaire style 

The irony bending your smile 

And I won't tip your hand 

I won't do you in 

I want to stay near you 

I want you to win

Riverboat gambler 

You can defy all the odds 

You can draw diamonds to fill out your flush 

You can find someone to trust 

And I won't steal your chips 

I won't steal your pride 

Won't you take me on faith 

Won't you let me inside

Riverboat gambler 

Under our velvet and lace 

You're an old vagabond, I'm a poor waif 

Let's make a place that's safe 

Riverboat gambler 

Come on and let me inside
