I'm A Ramblin' Man - Waylon Jennings Lyrics - Outlaws

I've been down the Mississippi, 

Down through New Orleans, 

Yes, I have. 

I've played in California, 

There ain't too much I haven't seen. 

No, there ain't. 

Well, I'm a ramblin' man, 

Don't fool around with a ramblin' man. 

Left a girl in West Virginia, 

Up there where that green grass grows, 

Yes, I did. 

Another girl in Cincinnati, 

Waitin' where the Ohio River flows, 

Poor girl! 

I'm a ramblin' man, 

Don't give your heart to a ramblin' man.

You'd better move away, 

You're standin' too close to the flame. 

Once I mess with your mind, 

Your little heart won't beat the same. 

Lord, I'm a ramblin' man, 

Don't mess around with any ol' ramblin' man. 

Better not! 

Well, up in Chicago, 

I was known as "Quiet Boy," 

Yes, I was! 

Down in Alabama, 

They call me "The man of joy," 

Still do! 

Well, I'm a ramblin' man, 

Don't fall in love with a ramblin' man.

Your little heart won't beat the same. 

Lord, I'm a ramblin' man, 

Don't mess around with any ol' ramblin' man.
