Moonlight Gambler Lyrics

You can gamble for match sticks, you can gamble for gold
The stakes may be heavy or small
But if you haven't gambled for love and lost
Then you haven't gambled at allThey call me a moonlight gambler
I've gambled for love and lost
When I gamble for love and it isn't in the cards
Oh, what heartaches it can cost meWin or lose, I'm a moonlight gambler
And a winner is what I long to be
So I'll gamble for love just as long as I live
Till the day Lady Luck smiles at meYou can gamble for match sticks, you can gamble for gold
The stakes may be heavy or small
But if you haven't gambled for love and lost
Then you haven't gambled at allNo, if you haven't gambled for love in the moonlight
Then you haven't gambled at all
So I'll gamble for love just as long as I live
Till the day Lady Luck smiles at meThey call me the moonlight gambler
They call me the moonlight gambler
