about

This is a great song by Hank Williams Sr.

lyrics

Ramblin’ Man
Hank Williams, Sr.

I can settle down and be doin’ just fine
Til I hear an old freight 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 something 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.

My influences are Leadbelly, Jimmie Rodgers, CCR and The Band, while the juices of a hundred others flavor my music, not to mention the devil himself if that's what it takes to make a song... ... more
