Well, I've been all around this whole wide world
And I've done most everything
Played cards with the best of men
And I lost everything
Well, I left my man, he was crying
He was crying in the door
How he threw his arms around my neck
He said, "Honey, don't you be too long"


Hey, don't let your deal go down
No, don't let your deal go down
No, don't let your deal go down
'Til your last gold dollar is gone




Well, who's gonna shoe your little feet?
Tell me, who's gonna glove your hand?
Who's gonna love on you, my sweet baby?
Tell me, who's gonna be your man?
And where did you get those high top shoes
And the dress that you wear so fine?
She got the shoes from the marketplace
And the dress from the traveler in the mines



Hey, don't let your deal go down
No, don't let your deal go down
No, don't let your deal go down
'Til your last gold dollar is gone


Ooh




Well, I've been all around this whole wide world
And I've done most everything
I played cards with the best of men
I lost everything
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh
