Left my home and my woman
\nabout forty years ago
\nmostly don’t know when to quit
\nbut then I packed up my losses
\nand stumbled out on the road<\/p>\n
[ch]
\nWell I’m a rambler, I’m a gambler
\nI’m just a shambles of a man
\nI’m stumbling; my lifes crumblin
\nI’m just another loser on the lam<\/p>\n
If the stakes are low then the time is right
\nI’m a fool for a penny-ante game
\nMay be gambling with my life
\nbut it’s all small change just the same<\/p>\n
I’ve been beaten, I’ve been cheated
\nI’ve been shot at from Arkansas to Vietnam
\nI been shafted, I been laughed at
\nI been out-casted but I still don give a damn<\/p>\n
