Ramblin' Man Lyrics


Well, I'm your Ramblin' Man
And I can lift your latch
Well, I could stay here, Mama
But I got me some trains to catchWhen that cold north wind stops blowing
I'll still be a walking the line
You ever see me laughing, little lady
I'm laughing just to keep from cryingI'm your Ramblin' Man
And some Christmas time
Won't you hang my holy socks
On a midnight line?Well, that mountainside's just gonna sit there
That river's gonna rush on by
But don't ask me to hang around
I couldn't stay here if I triedI'm your Ramblin' Man
And I can go where I choose
And if you sing me a song, Mama
Make it a midnight bluesWell, don't that moon look beautiful, baby
Climbing up through the sky?
Well, it looks like I'm gonna chase that moon

Mama, 'til the day I dieI'm your Ramblin' Man
And there ain't no doubt
I'm gonna hang out late, Mama
With the midnight crowdWhere the silver starlight glistens
On the green mossy banks of time
I'm gonna spend my long nights listening
And looking for a star that's mineI'm your Ramblin' Man
And 'til I come home
Won't you hang my midnight mail
On a rollin' stone?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Gilmore is a native of the Texas Panhandle, having been born in Amarillo, Texas and raised in Lubbock, Texas. His earliest musical influence was Hank Williams and the honky tonk brand of country music that his father played. In the 1950s, he was exposed to the emerging rock and roll of other Texans such as Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash and Lubbock native Buddy Holly. He was profoundly influenced in the 1960s by the likes of The Beatles and Bob Dylan and the folk music and blues revival in that decade.
