Ramblin Man Lyrics & Chords By Dickey Betts & Great Southern

Lord, I was born a ramblin' man
Trying to make a living and doing the best I can
When it's time for leaving
I hope you'll understand that I was born a rambling man

My father was a gambler down in Georgia
He wound up on the wrong end of a gun
And I was born in the back seat of a Greyhound bus
Rolling down highway forty one

Lord, I was born a ramblin' man
Trying to make a living and doing the best I can
When it's time for leaving
I hope you'll understand that I was born a rambling man

I'm on my way to New Orleans this morning
Leaving out of Nashville, Tennessee
They're always having a good time down on the Bayou, Lord
Them delta women thing the world of me

Lord, I was born a ramblin' man
Trying to make a living and doing the best I can
When it's time for leaving
I hope you'll understand that I was born a rambling man
