| Been all around this wide wide world
|
| Done most everything
|
| Played cards with the King and the Queen
|
| And the ace, and the deuce and the trey
|
| Don’t let your deal go down, boy
|
| Don’t let your deal go down
|
| Don’t let your deal go down the drain
|
| 'Til my last gold dollar is gone
|
| Where did you get
|
| Those high buckle shoes
|
| And the dress that you wear so fine?
|
| Got my dress from an engineer
|
| And my shoes from a driver in the mine
|
| Don’t let your deal go down, boy
|
| Don’t let your deal go down
|
| Don’t let your deal go down the drain
|
| 'Til my last gold dollar is gone
|
| You call me a bum
|
| When I’m home with you
|
| And it’s bad man and tramp when I’m gone
|
| But when I come over the hill
|
| With a hundred-dollar bill
|
| Then it’s honey, where ya been so long?
|
| Don’t let your deal go down, boy
|
| Don’t let your deal go down
|
| Don’t let your deal go down the drain
|
| 'Til my last gold dollar is gone |
