Son of a Rotten Gambler (2003 Digital Remaster) - The Hollies

And his love will be his vision

And he'll take you where you stand

And will you stand your life by his

And help the boy become a man?

And he'd be the son of his father, his father the teacher

Teaching love and honesty, being his own man handler

For the son of the son of run of the mill run

Rotten gambler

Will the devil be getting to you as you look back

Over what you've done?

And what you've done, was it for reason or rhyme?

Was it just for fun?

And he'd be the son of his father, his father the teacher

Teaching love and honesty, being his own man handler

For the son of the son of run of the mill run

Rotten gambler

Back on the road now you can lose your head

There ain't no kingdom for the gambling man

You know the road now and you've made your stand

When his eyes shine upon you, shine upon you

And he'd be the son of his father, his father the teacher

Teaching love and honesty, being his own man handler

For the son of the son of run of the mill run

Rotten gambler

Back on the road now you can lose your head

There ain't no kingdom for the gambling man

You know the road now and you've made your stand

When his eyes shine upon you, shine upon you

And he'd be the son of his father, his father the teacher

Teaching love and honesty, being his own man handler

Or the son of the son of run of the mill run
