歌词
Come aroud you rovin' gamblers and a story I will tell
过来,你们这些游荡赌徒,给你们讲个故事
About the greatest gambler, you all should know him well

His name was Willie O' Conley and he gambled all his life
他的大名是威利·奥威利,他一辈子都在赌
He had twenty seven children yet he never had a wife
有二十七个子女,却从没有过一个妻子
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
He gambled in the White House and in the railway yards
他曾在白宫赌过,也在火车站里赌过
Wherever there was people, there was Willie and his cards
只要有人的地方就有威利和他的牌
He had the reputation as the gamble'est man around
他那大赌徒的名声,周遭无人不知
Wives would keep their husbands home when Willie came to town
当威利进了城,妻儿们会让丈夫待在家里
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
Sailin' down the Mississippi to the town called New Orleans
顺着密西西比河航行来到奥尔良
They're still talkin' about their card games on that Jackson River Queen
他们仍在谈着关于杰克逊河皇后号上的赌局
"I'm come to win some money " gamblin' Willie says
“俺是来赢些钱的。”赌徒威利说
When the game finally ended up, the whole damn boat was his
游戏结束时,整艘船已为威利所有
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
Up in the Rocky Mountains in a town called Cripple Creek
在洛西山上有个小镇叫瘸子溪
There was an all-night poker game, lasted about week
有一周那里夜夜开通宵赌局
Nine hundred miners had laid their money down
九百个矿工一 一出钱下注
When Willie finally lest the room, he owned the whole damn town
威利终于离开时,整个镇都是他的
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
But Willie had a heart of gold and this I know is true
但我清楚威利有颗金子般的心
He supported all his children and all their mothers too
他养活他所有的子女以及儿女们的母亲
He wore no rings or fancy things like other gamblers wore
他不像别的赌徒那样穿金戴银
He spread his money far and wide,to help the sick and the poor
他将钱财博施广布,帮助病人与穷人
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
When you play your card with Willie, you never really knew
你跟威利打牌时,你永远都不知道
Whether he was bluffing' or whether he was true
他究竟是虚张声势还是真有好牌
He won a fortune from a man who folded on his chair
他曾赢过一笔财富,那人座上扔掉一手
The man he left a diamond flush,Willie didn't even have a pair
方块同花顺,而威利连一个对子都没有
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
It was late one evenin' during a poker game
某天深夜在一场赌局中间
A man lost all his money, he said Willie was to blame
一个输光钱财的赌徒说 都是威利的错
He shot poor Willie through the head, which was a tragic fate
他一枪打穿了可怜威利的脑袋,真是悲惨的命运
When Willie's cards fell on the floor, they were aces backed with eights
当他的牌掉到地上：对A和对八
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
So all you rovin' gamblers,wherever you might be
所以啊,所有的游荡赌徒们,无论你们身在何处
The moral of the story is very plain to see
这个故事的教训再清楚不过
Make your money while you can, before you have to stop
能取胜时就取,在你必须收手之前
For when you pull that dead man's hand, your gamblin' days are up
因为当你抽到 “亡人之手’”（黑桃A、梅花A、黑桃八、梅花八）, 赌博的日子也就不再
And it's ride,Willie, ride
赌一把,威利,赌一把
Roll,Willie,roll
滚骰子,威利,滚骰子
Wherever you are a-gambling' now, nobody really knows
不管你现在在哪儿赌,没人会知晓
