The devil went down to the river

And he came to fall; to lose it all;

To fool the fool too quick to call

While the gambler's stacks grew bigger;
G F Am G
He had lost his sights through narrowed eyes;

Too tempted by his wry desires

Damned across fated paths

The time to fold had come to pass

Dm
With gambler's glory delivered
G F Am G
He had thirst for more; a bigger score;

A trophy no one could ignore

And the devil's wealth had withered

So with cunning class he offered fast his soul;
Am G F Dm
The wager had been cast
[Refrão] Gm F Am G
The gambler called, the river fell
Gm F Am G Dm
And now the hand from out of hell
Gm F Am G
The devil smiled, looked in his eyes;

He knew the loss was glorified

The devil said "Revel in your victory;
Dm
You've earned your damning, pack your things and leave."

But, the gambler only stood and stuttered
Dm
Stammering on words in disbelief

"Now you've won a new vocation
Dm
Pray to me that you can stand the heat!"

And that, the gambler saw
Dm
Meant he had gone and finally set the devil free
