“You’ve got to know when to hold ’em Know when to fold ’em
Know when to walk away And know when to run
You never count your money When you’re sittin’ at the table
There’ll be time enough for counting When the dealin’s done.”

Everyone knows his song “The Gambler”
so please enjoy an earlier hit from way-wayback:
Kenny Rogers and The First Edition
“Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)”
Lip-synced performance from the “Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour” television show:
Live Vocal (with canned music) performance for television 1968:
Live Performance from the “Kenny Rogers Rollin’ On The River” television show and the “Remember the 70’s” DVD:
“Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)”
written by Mickey Newbury and first recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis in 1967
(Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah) / (What condition my condition was in)
I woke up this mornin’ with the sundown shinin’ in.
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within.
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky.
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
(Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah) / (What condition my condition was in)
I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in.
I watched myself crawlin’ out as I was a-crawlin’ in.
I got up so tight I couldn’t unwind,
I saw so much I broke my mind.
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
(Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah) / (What condition my condition was in)
Someone painted “April Fool” in big black letters on a “Dead End” sign.
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind.
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare,
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere.
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
(Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah…)
Produced by Mike Post. Some top studio musicians including Glen Campbell and Hal Blaine played the backing music and Post used effects, like phasing and backward mastering innovated by The Beatles, to give the song the psychedelic sound of the 60’s. It was released in 1968 to lukewarm reception until it was performed (lip-synced in a psychedelic video) on the “Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour” television show.
The song hit #5 on the “Billboard Hot 100”.
“Gutterballs” dream from the film “The Big Lebowski” with the song as the soundtrack:
