she is a gambler

She is a gambler

In all of her life

She plays in high stakes

She loses more than she wins

When she has no money

She will tell lies to get her way

She even borrows from Ah Longs

She hardly can pay them back

She manages to get married

She has her children and a loving man

But the gambling habits take her toll

Ah Longs come calling for her debts

She can't take the heat

She escapes to Penang

Leaving her husband and kids

Living a different life styles

She becomes a hostess

She is good in her profession

She will ensnare the older men

Going out with them

I don't know what she has become

I have left Penang so many years ago

Time has aged most of us

Maybe Ah Longs can write off her debts

She is a gambler

Playing in high stakes

Left her family becomes a hostess

“Running away from Ah Longs” she says
