Album: Live Boston 1977
Yeah, gonna tell my tale
Come on,
Come on
Give a listen,
Cause I was born lonely
Down by the riverside
Learned to spin fortune wheel
And throw dice
And I was just thirteen
When I had to leave home
Knew I couldn't stick around,
Had to roam
I ain't good lookin',
But you know I ain't shy
Ain't afraid to look a girl
In the eye
So if you need some lovin'
And you need it right away,
Just take a little time out
And maybe I'll stay
Then I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man
Lord I got to gamble,
Gamblin' man
Ahh I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man
And I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man
I hope you got money,
Sho gonna need some
Ain't gonna run on lovin'
And I got to run
I got to keep movin',
Never gonna slow down
You can have your funky world,
See ya 'round
I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man
Yeah I got to gamble,
Gamblin' man
Ahh I got to ramble,
Ramblin' man
I was born a ramblin' gamblin' man
