[chorus]
he was a riverboat gambler, bet his roll on jacks and queens
he was on board that old riverboat on his way to new orleans

[verse 1]
that old stern wheel was turnin’ as the boat backed away from the sh0r-
you could see him standing on the deck where he’d never stand no more
in his hands he held a deck of cards, at his side he wore a gun
for he was a riverboat gambler on the memphis-new orleans run

[chorus]
yeah, he was a riverboat gambler, bet his roll on jacks and queens
he was on board that old riverboat on the way to new orleans

[verse 2]
some of the games were started and he sat down to play
he shuffled the cards, then dealt them out, not one word did he say
his luck was running true to form, he was winning every hand
he’d never been a loser, this riverboat gambling man

[chorus]
well, he was a riverboat gambler, bet his roll on jacks and queens
he was on board that old riverboat on the way to new orleans

[verse 2]
as his winnings mounted, a gun-hand started to stray
“takes more than luck,” said a man named jack, “to ever win that way”
just then a pistol sounded and he fell to the floor
they found an ace tucked in his sleeve and he won’t gamble no more

[chorus]
oh, he was a riverboat gambler, bet his roll on jacks and queens
he was on board that old riverboat on his way to new orleans
he was on board that old riverboat on his way to new orleans
he was on board that old riverboat on his way to new orleans
