Didn't he ramble he rambled
Rambled all around in and out of town
Didn't he rambledidn't he ramble
He rambled till the butcher cut him down
His feet was in the market placehis head was in the street
Lady pass him by, saidlook at the market meat
He grabbed her pocket bookand said I wish you well
She pulled out a forty-fivesaid I'm head of personnel
Didn't he ramblei said he rambled
Rambled all aroundin and out of town
Didn't he rambleoh didn't he ramble
He rambled till the butcher shot him down
(instrumental break)
He slipped into the cat housemade love to the stable
Madam caught him coldsaid I'll pay you when I be able
Six months had passed and she stood all she could stand
She said buddy when I'm through with you
Ole groundhog gonna be shakin yo' hand
And didn't he ramblehe rambled
Rambled all aroundin and out of town
Oh didn't he ramblehe rambled
You know he rambledtill the butchercut him down
I said he rambledlord'till the butcher shot him down
