MY RAMBLIN� BOY By Tom Paxton key:A Chorus: And here's to you, my ram-blin' boy, 6 6 7 8 -8 7 -6 6 May all your ram-blin' bring you joy. 4 5 -6 6 -4 -6 -6 6 Here's to you, my ram-blin' boy, 6 7 8 -8 7 -6 6 May all your ram-blin' bring you joy. 4 5 -6 6 -4 -5 5 4 1 He was a man and a friend al-ways 6 6 -6 6 6 6 -5 5 4 He stuck with me in the hard old days. 6 6 -6 6 6 6 -6 7 6 He nev-er cared if I had no dough, 6 6 7 8 -8-8 7 -6 6 We ram-bled round in the rain or snow. 4 5 -6 6 6 6 -5 5 4 2 In tulsa town we chanced to stray. We thought we try and work one day. The boss said he had room for one, Said my old pal, ``we'd rather bum.'' 3 Late one night in a jungle camp The weather it was cold and damp. He got the chills and he got them bad, I lost the only friend I had. 4 He left me here to ramble on, My ramblin' pal is dead and gone. When we die, we go somewhere, I'll bet you a dollar he'll be ramblin' there. Tom Paxton & Pete Seeger http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yNfnqueYQY&feature=related |
