You can't hate "The Gambler", you just can't.
I mean the rest of it you can find overly sentimental, or not "country" enough, and even for a fan that should be perfectly fair. But "The Gambler" is Americana.
I wonder if Kris Kristopherson wrote that.
Wiki says that Rogers did. It sounds VERY Kristopherson to me. Ehh, artists share influences.
