"Misery, Trouble & Heartache (4/4)" lyrics

I lay my money on down
This game I'm playing for keeps
Misery, trouble, and heartache, my friend
It's gambling time again

She left without any warning
Did not come back this way
Misery, trouble, and heartache, my friend
It's gambling time again

Tell me, tell me oh father
Where on earth have you been?
Misery, trouble, and heartache, my friend
It's gambling time again

These days was destin' for driftin'
Ain't here for long anyway
I've got misery, trouble, and heartache, my friend
It's gambling time again

Acres and acres of diamonds
Never shine bright like you
Your misery, trouble, and heartache, my friend
It's gambling time again

Got misery, trouble, and heartache, my friend
It's gambling time again
