The Rambler Lyrics - Kentucky - Black Stone Cherry

You were born 

in a southern fall 

It might have been sunday 

but I can't recall 

All the birthdays 

I must have missed 

Your first steps 

and your first kiss 

I don't even know 

if you know my name 

but you should hear the truth 

before it's too late 

so I hope this finds you 

on some highway 

'cause I'm an old time rambler 

I call the road my home 

Forgive my indiscretion 

It's the only way I know 

A million miles from Kentucky 

but I will always be around 

So turn the radio up 

When your heart breaks down 

I played for tips 

and I played for less 

I played a pretty southern girl 

right out of her dress 

She danced until the lights came on 

There's a reason she's here 

instead of being at home 

She said the songs you sang 

made the whole room cry 

And that night I told 

a young man's lie 

When I said I would call her 

and I said I'd write 

'cause I'm an old time rambler 

I call the road my home 

Forgive my indiscretion 

It's the only way I know 

A million miles from Kentucky 

But I will always be around 

So turn the radio up 

When your heart breaks down 

Turn the radio up 

When your heart breaks down 

I'm sorry for the tears 

I made you cry 

I'm sorry for the promises 

that turned to lies 

If I could turn back 

the hands of time 

I'd take it back and try, try, try 

to make you understand 

that this is who I am 

I met the devil in an old motel 

It seems I ain't got much of a soul to sell 

My glass is empty 

My hands are blue 

and the doctor gave me 

about a month or two 

Well, I thought I would make it 

to you this year 

So forgive me one last time my dear 

And tell your mother 

I won't be coming home 

'cause I'm an old time rambler 

I call the road my home 

Forgive my indiscretion 

It's the only way I know 

A million miles from Kentucky 

but I will always be around 

So turn the radio up 

When your heart breaks down 

Turn the radio up 

When your heart breaks down
