Three men down on the river bank rollin' them gamblin' bowls
I say one named Johnny one named Samson and the other was Willie Jones
The other was Willie Jones
Well Willie was a rollin' and shootin' at once he said this time I bet in a lose
Johnny's done won my new Stetson hat and mama needs a new pair of shoes
Mama needs a new pair of shoes
Willie (Willie was a gamblin' man) Willie was a gamblin' man
Willie rolled them bowls all over the land Willie was a gamblin' man
Well Willie was a gamblin' man
Well Willie got mad at Johnny he jerked out a big 44
He said you've got my stetson and all of my money but you ain't a gonna get no more
I know you ain't a gonna get no more
He said Johnny boy I'm gonna kill you I'm gonna shoot you and that ain't all
When my bullet goes thru your head I'm gonna bet a which a way you're gonna fall
I'm gonna bet a which a way you're gonna fall
Willie (Willie was a gamblin' man)...
Well the sheriff he came got poor Willie
