I'm a Gamblin' Man.
I do the best that I can.
I never show my Hand Baby
I'm a Gamblin' Man
I've been up and down.
I've been all around.
I've seen this entire town baby.
I've been up and down.
I know you're just like me.
A dirty lying cheat.
It ain't no skin of my teeth baby.
I know you're just like me.
I'm a Gamblin' Man.
I do the best that I can.
I never show my Hand Baby
I'm a Gamblin' Man
I've been here before.
I hear the knock at the door.
Now we're face down on the floor baby.
I've been here bofore
I got an ace up my sleeve.
It puts old blue to sleep.
I've got some secrets to keep, Baby.
So tell me what did you see?
I'm a Gamblin' Man.
I do the best that I can.
I hope you understand, Baby
I'm a Gamblin' Man

Take Me back

Back in 91' our trailer burned down.
So mama moved the family to a lil old town.
Then back in 97 a flood rolled in.
So mama packed our bags for the road again.
We moved to a farm where my Mama grew up.
We didn't have a lot but we didn't need much.
I know that she did the best she could.
I do it all again yeah you know I would.
You know I would
So Take Me Back to that old dirt road
walking half a Mile in the freezing cold.
Take Me Back to my first kiss.
The moment I forgot to use my lips.
Take Me Back to that lil old town.
Everybody laughing at the class room clown.
Take Me Back to that old Farm house.
Workin all day till the sun goes down.
Till the sun goes down.
It wasn't too long before I was on my own.
Working 5 to 9 in a construction zone.
Then I found a girl and I fell in love.
We'd sit and watch the stars till the sun comes up.
I wish I knew then what I know now.
Who knows might have worked out.
I'd do it all again if I could
I'd do it all again yeah you know I would.
You know I would.

I Tried

I saw you on the street last night.
You had nothing to say.
You just kept walkin on by.
Just like every other day.
So let me ask you this.
Would you have done the same?
or am I just living a lie?
Thinking I can still be saved.
(Chorus)
Will I get into Heaven?
Even if I do you right?
Will Jesus forgive me?
For telling all those lies?
Will I get into Heaven?
Even if I lose my mind?
Would Jesus forgive me?
I swear to god I Tried.
I can't say I blame you one bit.
You don't even know my name.
but when I needed you most.
You just turned and walked away.
So let me ask you this.
Are you dumb, deaf, or blind?
Cuz you're actin like I don't exist.
and I'm left wondering Why?
(Chorus)
