Frankie Laine - Moonlight Gambler Lyrics
Moonlight Gambler -Artist: Frankie Laine as sung on "Frankie Laine's Greatest Hits" -Columbia CS 8636 -Words by Bob Hilliard and Music by Phil Springer SPOKEN: 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, you haven't gambled at all. They 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 me Win 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 me 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 all No, 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 me They call me the moonlight gambler They call me the moonlight gambler Transcribed by Robin Hood These lyrics were transcribed from the specific recording mentioned above and do not necessarily correspond with lyrics from other recordings, sheet music, songbooks or lyrics printed on album jackets
