Ramblin' Man

They say I am a rambling man,
I've rambled far and wide,
You know I've searched for you my love,
But you I cannot find
I don't wanna be rambler, but you know I ain't got a home
I don't wanna be rambler, but you know I ain't got a home
I've rambled here and I've rambled there,
I've breathed the cool fresh mountain air,
From the countryside to the city streets,
Prayed to the lord my soul to keep
I don't wanna be rambler, but you know I ain't got a home
I don't wanna be rambler, but you know I ain't got a home
Got no place to call my own
But in my hat that is my home
Gonna try to find my girl
Gonna keep on singing
Well the fox have holes and the birds have nests,
To rear and raise their young,
But I can't lay down my weary head,
Until my race is run
I don't wanna be rambler, but you know I ain't got a home
I don't wanna be rambler, but you know I ain't got a home

Be There Blue Eyes

Lady, lady, take my hand,
I wanna be with you again
Your eyes are blue like a November sky
I want to be with you tonight
And I say oh,
Will you take my hand, for a while
I wanna be there with you, and not just by myself,
I wanna stay with you tonight
Lady, lady, take my hand,
I wanna be with you again,
Your eyes are blue like a polished sapphire
I wanna be with you tonight
And I say oh,
Will you take my hand, for a while
I wanna be there with you, and not just by myself,
I wanna stay with you tonight
Lady, lady, take my hand,
I wanna be with you again,
Your words are kind and your voice is sublime,
I wanna be with you tonight
And I say oh,
Will you take my hand, for a while
I wanna be there with you, and not just by myself,
I wanna stay with you tonight
And I say oh,
Will you take my hand, for a while
I wanna be there with you, and not just by myself,
I wanna stay with you tonight
I wanna be there with you, and not just by myself,
I wanna stay with you tonight

Cask Wine
03:34

Mary you taste so fine,
You taste like cheap cask wine,
We went down to the river,
But she didn’t happen to deliver
On the promise she made last night
Oh, she tastes so fine like a cheap cask wine
Oh, she’s dangerous, she burns like turpentine
Mary likes her cigarettes,
She’s a walking, talking suffragette
But she doesn’t know who she’s voting for,
That doesn’t matter when you’re young,
Cos when you’re the bee you can’t get stung
Oh, she tastes so fine like a cheap cask wine
Oh, she’s dangerous, she burns like turpentine
Mary went to Sunday school
Her cocaine habit broke all the rules
Matthew, Mark and little John,
They didn’t know she was stealing money,
And stringing them along
Oh, she tastes so fine like a cheap cask wine
Oh, she’s dangerous, she burns like turpentine

Axe gone missing in the toolshed,
Someone stole my gun and all my lead,
Mary’s gone to find her lover,
She knowed he was with another,
Mary’s gone to kill her lover dead
Young Mary stood ‘bout five foot five,
She loved her man with all her might,
She’s the kinda girl that wouldn’t hurt a fly,
But when she caught him cheating, well,
She couldn’t stand competing,
She went after him with a gun strapped to her thigh
Axe gone missing in the toolshed,
Someone stole my gun and all my lead,
Mary’s gone to find her lover,
She knowed he was with another,
Mary’s gone to kill her lover dead
Mary’s man ran awful fast,
He looked like a blur when he went past,
He thought he could escape from her that way,
But there ain’t nothing quicker than a woman full of liquor,
Who’s been mistreated and who wants to make you pay
Axe gone missing in the toolshed,
Someone stole my gun and all my lead,
Mary’s gone to find her lover,
She knowed he was with another,
Mary’s gone to kill her lover dead
Mary took her shotgun killed her lover dead as nails,
And then she shot the sheriff, so she couldn’t go to jail,
The devil he came knocking, to take her sould to hell,
But Mary said “Just try it boy,”
And shot him dead as well
Axe gone missing in the toolshed,
Someone stole my gun and all my lead,
Mary’s gone to find her lover,
She knowed he was with another,
Mary’s gone to kill her lover dead

Love Train
02:25
|
|||
|
Here I come chuggin' round the bend,
Foot to the floor, there ain't no dead end
She rolls and tumbles and I hold on tight
I hope I get home before midnight
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
Get on board, she'll take you for a ride
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
But don't forget your ticket
I stoke her fire and she picks up speed
So damn fast I'll be on my knees
She's comfy and quick, she comes right on time
But when I'm on board I'm on the express line
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
Get on board, she'll take you for a ride
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
But don't forget your ticket
The carriages are big but there's standing room only
At least I know that I won't get lonely
If you listen close, you can hear the wheels grind
On the old worn tracks, if you're so inclined
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
Get on board, she'll take you for a ride
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
But don't forget your ticket
It's business in the front and a party in the back
And if you're on top, you don't get much slack
So next time you're travelling 'cross this rugged plain,
I suggest you buckle up and get on the Love Train
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
Get on board, she'll take you for a ride
Get on the Love Train, get on the line
But don't forget your ticket

Troubles
04:16
|

|
I go to work at five in the morning,
Get home at 12 at night
Ain't got time to see my baby
Ain't got time to treat her right
I couldn't see the sun in the morning
Couldn't see it in the afternoon
And I ain't seen the sun in 99 days
Lord it's gonna turn me crazy soon
I got troubles, Lord
I got troubles, Lord
I got troubles, Lord
Won't you take them away from me?
Well I work all day in the woodshed,
Chopping 'til I'm weary and lame
And I get up early next morning
Just to come in and do it all again
I couldn't pay the landlord last week
I couldn't pay him at all today
Now I got no job and I got no home
Please take these troubles away
I got troubles, Lord
I got troubles, Lord
I got troubles, Lord
Won't you take them away from me?
Hear that old steam train a'coming
It's a chugging on down that line
And baby when I'm on that train
These troubles will all be fine
I got troubles, Lord
I got troubles, Lord
I got troubles, Lord
Won't you take them away from me?
