Miksi tällaista musiikkia ei tehdä enää nykyään? Perhaps nobody has any balls for it anymore.



Go Down Gamblin' by Blood Sweat & Tears on Stereo 1971 CBS 45.

Satunnaisten kommentaattorien sanomaa:

I originally liked this tune because of the guitar, but now I hear the exquisite beauty of the horn section. These guys are something else. I love the way they make the sound of the horns appear out of nowhere and crush your face. This is extremely good!

I love they way they incorporate jazz and rock together, and I agree with you on the horns. Thanks for listening to this vintage 45 recording...Friends, Lloyd.

One of the VERY few "rock 'n' roll" songs with a tuba solo.

Born a natural loser
can't recall just where
Raised on brew and poker and a dollar here and there
Blackjack hand, dealer man, you better pay off that last bet
Two-bit hand, a 21 is all I ever get

Go down gamblin'
say it when you're runnin' low
Go down gamblin'
you may never have to go

Down in a crap game, I've been losin' at roulette
Cards are bound to break me, but I ain't busted yet
'Cause I've been called a natural lover by that lady over there
Honey, I'm just a natural gambler but I try to do my share

Go down gamblin'
say it when you're runnin' low
Go down gamblin'
you may never have to go
