john mellencamp - gambling bar room blues lyrics

[verse 1]
i went down to the corner just to meet my gal
i found her standin’ on the sidewalk, she was talkin’ 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’, rockin’ and drunk again
well, i kept on drinkin’ gin and liquor way up into the night
when my pal walked into the bar room
man, we had a terrible fight
i reached down for my razor, and then i knocked around
but when i pulled my pistol, i quickly smoked him down

[verse 2]
i went down to see my baby, and met her on the way
i told her i had to leave her, i told her i could not stay
i started down to the station and stopped in at the bar
and there i met a policeman
he was cruisin’ down in his car
my baby came in to join us, and then it began to rain
then i was in a hurry, had to catch that midnight train
i laid my head on the bar room door
i’ll never get drunk no more
i p-wn my watch and my golden chain
i p-wn my baby’s diamond ring

[outro]
i said, hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey hey
hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey hey
