Ramblin' Man

(Hank Williams)



I can settle down and be doin' just fine

'Til I hear an old train rollin' down the line

Then I hurry straight home and pack

And if I didn't go, I believe I'd blow my stack

I love you baby, but you gotta understand

When the Lord made me, He made a ramblin' man.



Some folks might say that I'm no good

That I wouldn't settle down if I could

But when that open road starts to callin' me

There's somethin' o'er the hill that I gotta see

Sometimes it's hard but you gotta understand

When the Lord made me, He made a ramblin' man.



I love to see the towns a-passin' 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 called home your ramblin' man...
