Gambler's Blues - Original - Dinah Washington

I don’t know what love is

But I think I must have it bad

Yeah, you know I don’t know what love is people

Woah, but I think I must have it bad

Yeah, you know some people say love is just a gamble

But whatever it is, it’s enough to drive old B. mad

They say love is just a proposition people

It’s strictly a game of give and take

Yeah, they tell me love, love, love is a proposition people

They say it’s strictly a game of give and take

Woah, but my woman took all I gave her

And I’m here to tell to you that love proposition stuff’s a fake

Oh, I don’t claim to be no gambler people

Oh, I don’t know much about the dice

Yes, I don’t claim to be no gambler people

I tell you I don’t know much about the dice

Oh, but I wait and my baby knows

She knows I’m not the kind that’s gonna crap out twice

Yes, she left me early this mornin'

I don’t know the reason why

She just got up early this mornin'

Didn’t even say goodbye

But I love you, I love you, you know I love you, baby

Although you made me cry

Yes, there are a lot of women who want me

Oh, but how you satisfy?
