Rambling Gambler |
| I’m a rambler and a gambler |
| And a long ways from home |
| If the people don’t like me |
| They can leave me alone |
| Oh, it’s dark and it’s a-rainin' |
| And the moon gives no light |
| My pony won’t travel |
| On this dark road at night |
| Go put up your pony |
| And give him some hay |
| Come take your seat by me |
| Just as long as you stay |
| My pony isn’t hungry |
| No, he won’t eat your hay |
| We’re headed for Wyoming |
| We’re gonna graze on the way |
| I used to have me a pretty little sweetheart |
| Her age was nineteen |
| She was the flower of Belton |
| And the rose of Saline |
| But her parents were against me |
| And now she is the same |
| If I’m on your book, love |
| Won’t you blot out my name |
| I’m a rambler and a gambler |
| And a long ways from home |
| If the people don’t like me |
| They can leave me alone |
| Oh, it’s dark and it’s a-rainin' |
| And the moon gives no light |
| My pony won’t travel |
| On this dark road at night |
