Come round you rovin gamblers theres a story I will tell

 C                 C           F                   C

About the greatest gambler you all should know him well

    C                 C               F               C

His name was Willie O'?Connelly and he gambled all his life

         F                    C           F

He?s had 27 children yet he?s never had a wife



         C F C F           C F C F

And it?s ride Willie ride, roll Willie roll,

      F                         C F C F      C F  hold C

Where ever you?re a gamblin? now nobody knows



Well he gambled in the white house and in the railroad yards

Where ever there was people there was Willie and his cards

He had the reputation as the gamblinest man around

Wives would keep their husbands home when Willie came town



Sailin down the Mississippi to a town called New Orleans

They?re still talkin about that card game on that Jackson Queen

?I?ve come to win some money,? gamblin Willie says

When the game finally ended up, the whole darn boat was his



Up in the Rocky Mountains in a town called Cripple Creek

There was an old poker game lasted about a week

900 miners had laid their money down

When Willie finally left the room he owned the whole darn town.



(verse with harp)



Well Willie had a heart of gold and this I know is true

He supported all his children and all their mothers too

He wore no wings and fancy things that other gamblers wore

He spread his money far and wide to help the sick and poor



When you played your cards with Willie you never really knew

Whether he was bluffin or whether he was true

He won a fortune from a man who folded in his chair

The man he left a diamond flush Willie didn?t even have a pair



It was late one evening during a poker game

A man lost all his money said Willie was to blame

He shot poor Willie through the head which was a tragic fate

Willie?s cards fell on the floor they were aces backed with eights



So all you ramblin gamblers where ever you might be

The moral of the story is very plain to see

Make your money while you can before you have to stop

Cause when you pull that dead man?s hand your gamblin days are up.
