I used to be a ramblin' gal
Am C G
Oh but I got tired, and I settled down.
C G
A long long way, my feet did try
Am C G
Till the life got heavy and the times got hard.
C G
I've been out east, and I've been out west
Am C G
But the southern states are the ones I love the best.
C G
Alabam, Mississip, Louisan
Am C G
The Carolines, Tennessee, and Georgia's kind.
Well in California I nearly lost my head
I wound up wishing that I was dead.
But when I reached Cheyenne
I was feeling clear wanted to live again.
Well I shed a tear in nearly every state
Just wandering down that lost highway.
Now the open road, starts to calling me
But there ain't no place that I want to be.
Yes I used to be a ramblin' gal
Oh but i got tired and I settled down.
