lirik lagu steve forbert – gambling barroom blues
(jimmie rodgers)
i went down to the corner, just to meet my gal,
i found her standing on the sidewalk, talking to my pal.
i strolled back to the bar room, to get another drink of gin.
but the first thing i knew, i was reelin’, rocking and drunk again.
i kept drinking gin and liquor to way up in the night,
when my pal walked into the bar room, we had an awful fight.
i reached down for my razor, and we knocked around, but when i pulled
my pistol, i quickly smoked him down.

i went to see my baby, and met her on the way,
i told her i’ve had to leave her, i told her i could not stay.
i started down to the station and stopped in at the bar,
there i met a policeman, riding in a motor car.
we both drank lots of liqour, that flat footed cop and i,
i thought he would never leave me, lord, i thought i’d die.
my baby came in to join us, and then it began to rain, then i had
to hurry, hurry, to catch that midnight train.
i laid my head on the ballroom door, i never get drunk anymore,
i found my watch and my golden chain, i found my babys diamond ring.
police, police, police, you’re just as drunk as me,
i grabbed that all eight-wheeler, and went to the deep blue sea-ee.
