Dm                              F
Well, I've been all around this whole wide world
           C               G
And I have done most everything
Dm                    F
Played cards with the best of men
    C               G
And I've lost everything
        Dm                 F
Then I left my man, he was cryin'
       C             G
He was cryin' in the door
       Dm              F
And he threw his arms around my neck
        C                       G
He said honey, don't you be too long

[Chorus]
Dm                     F
Don't let your deal go down
    C                     G
No, don't let the deal go down
Dm                    F
Don't let the deal go down
           C                   G
Till your last gold dollar is gone

[Verse 2]
      Dm                     F
Well, who's gonna shoe your little feet
          C                     G
Tell me, whose gonna glove your hands
Dm                       F
Who's gonna love on you, my sweet baby
        C                   G
Tell me who's gonna be your man
Dm                     F
Where did you get them high top shoes
        C                       G
And the dress that you wear so fine
          Dm                       F
Well now, she got the shoes in the market place
        C                              G
And the dress from the traveler in the mine

[Chorus]
Dm                     F
Don't let your deal go down
    C                     G
No, don't let the deal go down
Dm                    F
Don't let the deal go down
           C                  G
Till your last gold dollar is gone

[Fiddle Solo]

Dm                      F
Don't let your deal go down
    C                      G
No, don't let the deal go down
Dm                    F
Don't let the deal go down
          C                    G
Till your last gold dollar is gone

Well, I've been all around this whole wide world
N.C.
And I've done most everything
N.C.
And played cards with the best of men
N.C.
But I've lost everything
