Lyrics

Japanese

胸を焦がす　正義の魂
ワルドック軍団　倒す為
山をも砕く　そのパワー
ギャンブラーＺで発進だ！

命を賭けた必殺の　ロイヤルストレートフラッシュ！
叩け！砕け！連チャンバズーカ

（セリフ）オレの目の黒いうちは
　　　　　イカサマなんて絶対にさせないぜ！？
　　　　　おっと、１１５番台ＳＴＡＲＴしました～。

ワルドックの野望　砕くまで
オヤジ見てくれ！俺はやる！！

世界中のエネルギー　この腕に集めて光る！！
唸れ！叫べ！！ギャンブラー　　Ｚ

English

Soul of justice burning in its chest
To overthrow Warudoc's evil army
Harnessing power to crush mountains
GAMBLER Z takes off!

Wagering its life with its special move : Royal Straight Flush!
Strike! Smash! Renchan Bazooka

  (Spoken) Do you really expect any cheating to get past my black eyes!?
           Whoops, a 115 series train just started~

Warudoc's ambitions must be crushed
Watch me, Pops! This is for you!!

Bright energy from around the world is gathered in my arm!!
Growl! Shout!! GAMBLER Z
