Am
I can settle down and be doin' just fine
E Am
Until I hear an old freight rollin' down the line
Am
Then I hurry on home and pack
E Am
And if I didn't go, I believe I'd blow my stack
Am
I love you babe, but you gotta understand
E Am
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 somethin' o'er the hill that I gotta see
I know it?s hard but you gotta understand
When the Lord made me, He made a ramblin' man
Acoustic solo
I love to watch the towns passin' by
And to ride these rails 'neath God's blue sky
Let me travel this land from the mountains to the sea
'Cause I believe that's the life that?s meant for me
And when I'm dead and gone and at my grave you stand
Just say God?s called home your ramblin' man
