Key: A major•
Verse 1
When up comes a rounder
by the name of Sam
He gives me a howdy
and he buys me a drink
And he calls me by my name
a -waitin' upstairs
There were four or five fellas
round the table upstairs
The smoke was thick as sin
and they pulled up a chair
I started in winning with the very first hand
I had money in my pockets
and money in my shoes
be the ruin of me
A
E
You gotta get ready to shed
some blood
I kept on winning for an hour or more,
and the boys were feeling low
and feeling like a sinner,
and I just about had their dough
on the very last hand,
and I bet my whole bankroll
deuces on the deck
be gone ruin me
A
E
You got to get ready to shed some blood
You know, I lost every penny
that I had in the world.
My old woman ain't talking to me
and the landlord wants his rent
and it sure enough didn't
I've only got myself to blame
and I keep on twitching
be the ruin of me
A
E
You gotta get ready to
shed some blood
How did you like the song?
