Those Gambler’s Blues Jimmie Rodgers

Ho, ho, hey hey
Hey ho hey

It was down in Big Kid's barroom
On a corner beyond the square
Everybody drinking liquor
The regular crowd was there

I walked out on the sidewalk
Began walking around
I looked everywhere I thought she'd be
But my baby couldn't be found

I passed by the big infirmary
I heard my sweetheart moan
Gee, it hurts me to see you here
'Cause you know, you used to be my own

I goes on out to see the doctor
"Your gal is low," he said
I went back to see my baby
Good God, she was lying there dead

Hey ho ho ho
Ooh ooh ooh
Hey hey ho ho ho
Hey ho hey
