Ramblin Man

(album: Lil G.L.'s Honky Tonk Jubilee - 2017)

I can settle down and be doing just fine
Til' I hear an old freight rolling down the line
Then I hurry straight home and pack
And if I didn't go, believe I'd blow my stack

I love you baby, but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me, he made a Rambling Man

Some folks might sa-ay that I'm no good
That I wouldn't settle down if I could
Well, when that open ro-oad starts to calling me
There's something over that hill I just got to see

Sometime it's har-rd but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me, He made a Rambling Man

I love to see the towns a-passing by
And to ride these rails 'neath God's blue sky
Let me travel this land from the mountains to the sea
Cause that's the life I believe
He meant for me
And when I'm gone and at my grave, you stand
Just say God's called home your Rambling Man
