Gambler (monitor mix) (1983) Songtext
von Whitesnake

I′ve been a gypsy for a thousand years
A victim of circumstance (Circumstance)
I go wherever my destiny calls
I'm caught in a game of chance (Game of chance)

I stand on the outside looking at love
I wanna get inside (Inside)
I stand on the outside looking at love
Just trying to get inside

No fame or fortune, no luck of the draw
When I dance with the Queen of Hearts (Queen of Hearts)
A jack of all trades, a loser in love
It′s tearing my soul apart (Soul apart)


Still, I stand on the outside looking at love
I wanna get inside (I'm on the outside, looking in)
I stand on the outside looking at love
Just trying to get inside (I'm on the outside, looking in)

The jack of diamonds and the ace of spades
Try to use me and abuse me (Abuse me)
It seems the dealer won′t give me a chance
I′m the victim of circumstance (Circumstance)

So I stand on the outside looking at love
I wanna get inside (I'm on the outside, looking in)
I stand on the outside looking at love
Just trying to get inside (I′m on the outside, looking in)

I stand on the outside looking at love
I wanna get inside (I'm on the outside, looking in)
I stand on the outside looking at love
Just trying to get inside (I′m on the outside, looking in)

I stand on the outside looking at love
I wanna get inside...
