Guthrie Woody - The Gambler Lyrics

Out in the backyard yesterday Trimming the
hedge while the neighbors kids were in pool The power cord got a little close
to waters edge and sent 10,000 volts down little Billy's spine He was only
nine
better luck next time Woke up one sunday afternoon The families gone on a
hunt-
ing trip for carabou Broke out ladder gonna patch some hols up on the roof I
slipped and fell and landed on the ground no one was around when will I be
found
I'm sure not glad it happened But I'm happy as can be That it took the life
from
someone else Better than me Bought A home right by the plant They said
she's never blow again like she did beforePerhaps they spoke A bit to soon
cause A
half passed noon She blew like hell and then the sku turned red Toxins
overhead
everybody's dead, everybody's dead Pleasant dreams and thanks for listening
